Michelle Lynn Priem, the daughter of the late Donald Priem & Janice (Holicky) Priem, was born on September 25, 1973 in El Paso, Texas. Michelle “Shelly” attended school in Coral Springs, FL and obtained her degree from Florida State University.

She leaves behind her cherished daughter, Liana, and is also survived by her mother, Janice, whose loving support stayed with her throughout her life. She will also be remembered by numerous extended family members and close friends.

Michelle will be remembered for her generous spirit, big heart, and the kindness she showed to everyone around her. Her contagious laugh, holistic outlook, and large circle of friends reflected the warmth she brought into the world. She loved traveling, treasured her family ties, deeply loved her family in both Minnesota and Texas, and had a lifelong love of music that brought her comfort and joy. Michelle was a passionate football fan, proudly cheering for both FSU and the Minnesota Vikings.

She never missed Shark Week, a yearly tradition she truly enjoyed and looked forward to, she was always trying to get Liana to watch it with her too!

Her work in biotechnology was deeply important to her, and she took pride in contributing to meaningful advancements in her field.

Michelle held her father, Don, close to her heart, and his passing in December 2024 was a loss she felt profoundly. She found peace by the ocean, a place that brought her comfort and renewal.

Michelle also adored her pets Buddy, Lola, and Tucker who brought her daily joy and companionship.

Michelle will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew her.

A celebration of the lives of Michelle and Don will be held on Saturday, June 13, 2026, at 2:00 PM with a graveside service at St. Paul’s Lutheran Cemetery of German Lake in Cleveland, MN. Following the service, food and fellowship will be shared in the church’s social hall.
