Michelle L. Brown

Michelle L Brown, age 56, of St. Charles Missouri , passed away peacefully on 05/05/2026 after a brave battle with cancer.

Born on 08/27/1969 in St. Louis, Missouri, Michelle adored her grandchildren and cherished every moment spent with them. They were truly the light of her life, and her face would brighten whenever they were near. To her, they were not only family, but some of her very best friends.

She shared a special and unforgettable bond with her brother. Together, they often found themselves in harmless mischief and endless laughter, creating memories that will be treasured forever. Their friendship was one filled with love, humor, and loyalty, and there is comfort in knowing they are reunited once again.

Michelle worked tirelessly throughout her life to provide for her children and ensure they always had what they needed. Her love for them was unconditional, fierce, and unwavering. She would have moved mountains for her children without hesitation, and loved them with her whole heart.

Family was the center of Michelle’s world. During life’s hardest moments, she leaned on those she loved most, and her family was always grateful to stand beside her. She shared a close bond with her sisters, especially enjoying lively games of Scrabble together, and treasured gathering around a good meal with her children. Michelle found joy in friendship, laughter, storytelling, Mexican street corn, being near the water, and embracing all the beauty life had to offer.

Throughout her career as a stylist, Michelle formed countless friendships and touched many lives with her warmth and personality. She had a gift for telling stories that could make anyone laugh, and her contagious laugh was something those who knew her will never forget.

Later in life, Michelle discovered a new passion in bartending, where she once again built lifelong friendships and found immense happiness. She often said she had found the perfect job alongside the perfect group of people, and it brought her great joy.

Michelle was surrounded by the love of her family on the day she peacefully left this earth. She was not alone; her hands were held tightly by those who loved her most, comforting and loving her just as deeply as she had always loved them.

Though her absence leaves an immeasurable void, Michelle’s memory will live on forever in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.

Michelle was preceded in death by her brother, John Kelly Conway.

She is survived by her parents; John E. Conway and his wife, Donna K. Conway (nee Kaltenbach); her mother, Victoria Davis (nee Woody); her children; Brianna L. Corcoran; Robert A. Corcoran (Emily nee Fetsch); and Bailey K. Corcoran. She was a proud and devoted grandmother to Kinsley Corcoran-Maurer, Jayda Bland, and Jayden Bland; her sisters, Christine E. Conway, Nicole K. Bryant (nee Conway) and her husband, Timothy Bryant; Heidi Fritz and her partner, Alan Turner. Her Aunts and Uncles Cathy Woody, Steve Woody, and David and Nancy Kaltenbach, Michelle was also a loving Aunt to Emily and Brooke Bryant, Kaitlyn Conway and late Jessica Conway.

    Michelle was the best Daughter and friend a Mother could ever dream of having. I miss her so very much I can’t even imagine what life will be like when She’s not saying ‘Oh Mom’ . And every time we spoke her words would be to each other “Love you Mom”. I Love you too Michelle.

    I love you so much mom & I miss you more than you know. I promise to make sure your grandbabies remember you. Not sure how I’m suppose to live on an earth when you’re not here, but you made me the strong woman I am today. I’m going to make you proud .

    Michelle was a great friend. We raised our kids next-door to each other all about the same age. She was the laughter of everything. I will miss her dearly. Love you, Michelle.

    My heart and prayers go out to all Michelle’s family. I had the pleasure of her cutting my hair for many many years going all the way back to Custom cuts. We shared many stories over the years and can tell she really loved all of you. I will truly miss her friendship and stories but am happy she will not suffer anymore. God bless you.

    It was an honor to be Michelle’s cousin. There always seemed to be force causing us to run into each other. When I was kid and I would see you at the deli counter at the grocery store in O’Fallon, or walking into a random Solon to get my haircut and have her as my stylist. The biggest one of all was having my girlfriend at the time (1995/96)say that her moms new friend was joining us for Bingo at civic park and of course it was Michelle. Im thankful most of all the kindness and support she showed her Uncle Mark during his battles. I will miss you… see you on the flip side!
