Michelle Oranchuk
Heaven Called and Asked For Michelle Back
Michelle Oranchuk completed her earthly journey on August 7, 2026 passing peacefully at home wrapped in the deep warmth and love of her family. At just 46 years old, Michelle’s transition reminds us that while her time in this physical form was far too short, the depth, Grace, and love she brought into this world, leaves behind a beautiful and timeless legacy.
Michelle’s radiant spirit with her faith in the interconnectedness of all things, showed in how she lived her life as an ongoing act of love, kindness, and gratitude for all. She possessed an extraordinary gift for making others feel seen, cherished, anchored and most importantly, loved. For Michelle, into her final months, life was for a gift for giving and service, always listening deeply, while capturing you in the gaze of her beautiful eyes, effortlessly crafting sacredness into everyday moments.
She is held in eternal memory and survived by her partner Juan José Alas, Mother, Shelley Dawn Stewart, Grandmother, Catherine Smela, Brother, Corey Stewart (Opal Suhan ), Sister, Diana Brenneis (Curtis Brenneis ), Niece, Isabelle Brenneis, Niece, Emilia Brenneis, and a wide circle of beloved friends whose lives were forever transformed by her presence.
Though Michelle has stepped beyond the horizon of this life, her soul rests in sacred peace, and her love remains alive in every single heart and life that she has touched.
