Michelle Jones Henson, 61, of Manchester, Tennessee, passed away peacefully on October 31, 2025, surrounded by love after a brave four-year battle with inflammatory breast cancer.

Michelle lived her life with extraordinary creativity, compassion, and strength. A truly gifted artist, she saw beauty in everything and shared it with everyone who crossed her path. Her artwork and kindness brightened countless days and left lasting impressions on all who knew her. She was an advocate for every animal and truly loved them all. She devoted 25 years to Christopher Equipment, where her dedication and warm spirit made her not just a valued employee, but a cherished friend to many.

Michelle shared 35 wonderful years of marriage with her husband Tracy Ray Henson. Together they built a life filled with love, laughter, and unshakable devotion. In addition to her husband, Michelle is survived by her sisters, Lisa Jones, Bernadette Solomon and Jeryal Heimlich and brother Jay Jones, her dear friend Deborah Estfon, her faithful caregiver Sheri Prince and many close neighbors, whose care and compassion brought comfort throughout Michelle's journey.

Though her time with us was far too short, Michelle’s light will continue to shine in the hearts of all who loved her. Her courage, her art, and her boundless love will never be forgotten. In that spirit, Michelle's family request that in lieu of flowers, donations can be made to either Coffee County Animal Shelter or the Susan G. Komen Foundation.
