Michelle Foster

October 18, 1962 — July 1, 2025

Michelle Rene Foster, affectionately known as Missy or Shu-Shu by her loved ones, was born on October 18, 1962, in Omaha, Nebraska, and passed away on July 1, 2025, at the age of sixty-two. Michelle will forever be remembered for her unwavering commitment to family, her sheer will, fierce determination, and her non-judgmental spirit.

Michelle was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska, a graduate of Omaha North High School, and a mother to two girls whom she fiercely protected and loved endlessly. She also had two grandchildren whom she cherished and adored. The youngest of five siblings, she was known for her intellect and was a voracious reader at a very young age, reading the newspaper from front to back.

Michelle had an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, which always led to meaningful and entertaining conversations on a variety of topics, ranging from current events, global politics, to her favorite topic - hip hop culture. She was also an educator, always encouraging those around her to seek knowledge and the truth. She devoted a great portion of her life to supporting and managing the family business, Fuzzy’s Lounge, and in her spare time, she travelled, she enjoyed her family, and lived her life to the fullest with zero regrets.

Michelle was preceded in death by her devoted mother, Ernestine Haynes; her father, Union Foster; her Bonus Dad, Alvin Arteberry; and her sister, Roxanne Amos. She leaves behind her loving daughters, Tiecy (Kevin) Cotton and Tiffany (Bo) Waites; her sister, Darniece Amos; her brothers, Tyrone (Nasiree) Amos and Gregory (Etta) Foster; her special lifelong best friend, Michelle Wright, and her treasured bonus sister, Demetrice Amos. Michelle's legacy also lives on through her many cherished nieces, nephews, extended family members, and close friends touched by her light and will forever hold her memory close.
