Michelle Maria Brcko

Michelle Maria Brcko left this world peacefully on August 29th, 2021 surrounded by her family, after a brief fight with an aggressive cancer.

Born in Salt Lake City to Irene Robinson (née Connolly) and Miroslav Velkovich in January of 1964, she lived in Davis County, Utah for the majority of her life.
From a very young age, you could see Michelle’s determination, as she was a high energy child. This energy saw her to adulthood. She set her sights on a goal and didn’t rest until she accomplished it. Then she was on to the next goal without skipping a beat. She gave all of herself, always. Michelle was selfless.

After marrying Richard “Zooch” Brcko in 1989, Michelle was blessed with 4 children whom she is survived by: sons Coleman, Max, and Luke, and daughter Erika.
Michelle was a dedicated mother, wife, daughter and sister who lived for her children and family. She would do anything for them no matter the obstacles.

She took immense pride in seeing her children grow and accomplish their goals. On graduation day, she too graduated with each child. She nurtured and supported them; and instilled in them the confidence to know they could do anything in life. She taught them honesty and integrity. Michelle was a shining example of the qualities we strive to live by, and truly left this world a better place.

Michelle was an intensely hard worker, and never rested; there was always more to do. Many knew her through her successful, 20 year long career as a barber. Although she didn’t get to reap all the well deserved benefits of her efforts in this life, her relationships and children are the exception. They are all a homage to her success as a human being and a mother. She made those who loved her better, and was loved immensely herself.

Michelle will live in our hearts with tender memories of a life well lived, albeit too short.

The family will be having a celebration of Michelle’s life in the upcoming weeks. Dates, times, and locations will be provided to those wanting to attend via email. Please fill out this form if you wish to receive an email detailing the celebration for Michelle: https://forms.gle/MkxzYi3Unbc4bTNM6
