We are sad to announce the passing of our beloved Michele, who was taken suddenly on February 27th at Derby Royal.

Michele was born in Burbage to Terry and Eileen Shepherd of Clivesway, Hinckley, and raised in Hinckley. Michele attended school at St Albert's Convent School, Redmoor School then John Cleveland.

A very accomplished ballet dancer, Michele spent many years training with Miss Smith at Rochelle Dance School and loved performing in the annual Pantomimes and shows at the Concordia, Hinckley Theatre.

Michele moved from Hinckley to Nottinghamshire in 1992 and married Paul Keyworth in 1996. Michele became mother to Molly in 1999 and recently Glam Ma to Archie James in 2024. Michele was deeply devoted to her family and was a much loved sister to Gary and Clare, Auntie to many and loyal friend to many more.

Michele’s funeral will take place at South Leicestershire Crematorium, Countesthorpe on Tuesday 18th March 2025 at 3pm.

Family flowers only please. Donations to the MS Society would be much appreciated which will be handled by G Sellers.

I was so sorry to hear of your passing Michele

Having not seen you for nearly forty years I was fortunate enough to encounter you and your mum Eileen catching up over coffee one evening in the Marina restaurant, with only a few minutes of conversation it was obvious that your wit, good sense of humour and beauty were still there in bountiful measure, you were one of life's genuine irreplaceable souls.

My deepest sympathy goes out to all who will continue to live without you.

A sad sad day!

Mum, Glam-Ma, we miss you so much! You were the most amazing, beautiful, selfless woman in the world and we were so lucky to have you in our lives. I promise Archie will grow up knowing how wonderful his Grandma was.

Love you forever❤️

So sorry to hear about the passing of Michele. Myself & Abbie only knew Michele for a short amount of time, but we can honestly say she was such a beautiful woman, kindest mother to Molly, devoted wife to Paul & a fabulous Glam ma to Archie. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her. Rest in eternity Michele 💔 ❤️
