On December 7, 2020, a beautiful sunny afternoon, Michele âMickiâ Briggs, a true angel on Earth, was called home by her Lord Jesus Christ. She was 78 at the time of her death, following a courageous battle against Alzheimerâs-type Dementia. She was in the company of her children. She was one of those rare people who are truly genuine in their loving and caring nature. She loved her children above all else.

Micki attended school in Pocatello, graduating from Pocatello High School in 1960. She enrolled at Idaho State College (now Idaho State University) where she met Richard E. Briggs of Teton Valley, Idaho. They eloped to Elko, Nevada in August of 1961. She moved to Teton Valley where she made her home for the majority of her life. She was a long-time member of the Teton Valley Community Bible Church in Driggs. She was a member of the Teton Valley CowBelles, Red Hat Society, a substitute teacher, a volunteer at blood drives and the Felt polling station during elections.
