1967 - 2022

Maus, Michelle R. Born September 3, 1967 in Buffalo, New York and died August 6, 2022 at her home in Ft Lauderdale, Florida. On September 26, 1998 she and James P. Maus were married at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin.

He survives as does Michelle's Mother L. Ann Spear Mayer (James Mayer), sisters Laurie (David) Stack, Jennifer Spear and brother Michael (Shelly) Spear and the extended family of her husband. Sister Elizabeth Maus, brothers William (Vida) Maus III, Arthur (Karen) Maus, Francis (Terry) Maus, Edward Maus and Daniel (Mary) Maus. And many nieces and nephews and grand nieces and grand nephews.. Michelle was immediately welcomed as a family member and was endeared by all. This was a most noteworthy accomplishment. Michelle was predeceased by her father Gary J. Rubeck and parents- in- law William and Jane Ann Maus, with whom she shared a very special bond of affection.

Michelle was employed by Pan American Airlines, and while so employed received the United States Department of Defense Desert Shield and Desert Storm Medals. For twenty five years she worked locally in Financial Services with Morgan Keegan and Morgan Stanley. With her enviable competency and abiding congeniality she was deemed a friend by co-workers and clients. Upon retiring, Michelle became an active participant in the Canine Assisted Therapy Program. She and her loyal dog Auggie visited the Holy Cross Hospital Chemotherapy suites. Her perception as one who had undergone chemotherapy was particularly effective in consoling those patients expediting their infusions. Their visits were welcomed by patients and the Holy Cross Hospital Staff.

Michelle endured her cancer with grace and courage always expressing her appreciation to her care givers and supportive family members.

A visitation is scheduled for Friday, August 19th at 10:30AM in Saint Anthonys Catholic Church, Fort Lauderdale FL. The funeral mass will begin at 11:00AM.
