My condolences to the family Mrs Dulak was my advisory Teacher at Best Practice High School . She had a lovely spirit she always pushed me to work harder and when I felt sad she would always try her hardest to make me smile

I loved hearing Michele’s stories about all of the brave and hysterical things she did! I have a collection of poems she wrote as we emailed when she was in Senegal. Each new poem always made me laugh. One that stands out was “I miss decaf” . Michele was laughter , an artist, a powerful advocate for whatever was right, unequivocal love, unconditionally herself, and up for anything. So much. I’m so glad I have her amazing laugh in my head still. Char my love to you, your family, Issa and Maggie. ❤️

Michele will truly be missed. Her passion, love of teaching, wit and humor were all things that made me instantly love Michele. She was my mentor teacher and along with a few others, she made me instantly know I had found a good spot to start my career. Her laugh was contagious and the world will be a little quieter without it.

I have known Michele for years, but recently had the pleasure of working very closely during our last contract negotiations. She was a fighter but had a heart of gold. She worried about all staff, but had so many personal aspects in her fight too! I will truly miss you Michele.

I Learned so much from Michele! We worked together for 15 years. She was fun, naughty, loving, irreverent, witty, and wicked smart! We laughed and cried in each other's arms. I miss her already.

Michele will be remembered for standing up for others - her students and all of the staff of D46 as our union president (I'll never forget hearing her speak at union meetings!), and for her amazing strength and humor in the face of so many challenges. She was a true warrior!

Recently I've been thinking quite a bit about the sisterhood of women--how important it is to have a circle of support. Michele was my rock, the person I turned to in need and in happiness. There’s no one I laughed with, worked with, or cried with more. I was with her last Friday, and--even with brain cancer--she beat me at cribbage. I didn't know it would be the last game, but I'm glad she won.
