Michele Simovski

With deepest sorrow and shattered hearts, we announce the passing of Michele Simovski, a radiant soul and irreplaceable presence in our lives. She was the proudest and fiercely devoted mom to Marissa and Jordan Jr. Simovski, whom she loved with every fiber of her being. She supported Marissa and Jordan Jr. through everything, with unwavering love, constant encouragement, and a presence that never wavered. She celebrated every victory, stood strong through every challenge, and reminded her children every day that they were deeply loved and never alone. Her strength became their strength. Her belief in them never faltered. She was their biggest cheerleader, guiding force, and safe place - always, in all ways. Beloved wife to the late Jordan Sr. Simovski, precious daughter to the late Eugene and the late Clara Lobaza, and cherished daughter-in-law to the late Krsto and the late Bozana Simovski. Michele was a treasured sister to her identical twin, Mary (Pete) Milich. She and Mary shared an unbreakable bond. As twins, they were more than sisters - they were reflections of one another, with a closeness that words can hardly capture. Their lives were intertwined in the most beautiful way, filled with shared memories and unconditional love. Mary was not only Michele’s sister, but her mirror and one of the greatest constants in her life. Their connection was, and will always remain, something sacred. She was also a beloved sister to Monica (Chris) Hausner. Michele shared a deep and loving bond with Monica. She brought joy, strength, and comfort to Michele’s life, and their relationship was filled with warmth, encouragement, and unwavering support. Their bond was a beautiful reminder of the power of sisterhood: one rooted in love, understanding, and lifelong friendship. Michele was a loved and admired sister-in-law to Kathy (Ivan) Loncar and Slavjanka (the late Mladen) Simjanoski. Adored aunt to Sinisa Loncar, Alan Loncar, Vladimir Simjanoski, Igor Simjanoski, David Milich, Christian Hausner, and Luke Hausner. Michele also leaves behind countless friends, each touched by her warmth, generosity, and uplifting spirit. Her friendships were built on trust, laughter, and loyalty - her absence will be felt deeply by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Michele dedicated over 30 years of her career to BDO, where she served in IT with leadership, loyalty, and excellence. She was deeply respected by her colleagues for her work ethic, steady presence, and ability to lead with both intelligence and heart. Outside of her professional life, Michele found immense joy in supporting her family through the shared passion of iFreeze Creamery, the family ice cream business in Royal Oak. Affectionately known as “Momager,” she lit up whenever she was at the shop, helping behind the scenes or simply being present. Her pride in the business, and in her children, radiated from her. Michele had a remarkable gift for making people feel seen, welcomed, and loved. Whether through a warm smile, a thoughtful word, or her sense of humor, she had a way of lifting others - even on the hardest days. She was the epitome of strength and perseverance, meeting every challenge with grace, courage, and quiet determination. Her ability to remain hopeful, grounded, and kind, no matter the circumstance, reflected the deep faith that anchored her and the immense love she carried for her family. To our queen - we will miss you more than words can express. You were, and will always be, our biggest supporter, our constant, our heart. The pain of your absence is profound. We love you so much, Mom.
