Michelle "Misty" Aimee Risko

Michelle Aimee Risko, known as Misty to those she knew and loved, was a loving daughter, wife, mom, sister, aunt, niece, grandchild and all around amazingly talented, beautiful person. Misty passed away unexpectedly on December 8, 2020 in Ocala, Florida.

Misty was born in Norfolk, Virginia and raised in Florida where she lived in Clearwater, Pedro and Summerfield.

Misty was a bright light in the world, a wonderful, kind and giving soul who made those around her better and certainly happier. She was a friend and mentor to many, with a caring, laid back style, who made you feel that everything was going to be Okay.

Misty loved her family and friends. Her love of books and reading and writing combined with her passion for helping others culminated in a career with Marion County at the Marion County Public Library over the last twenty years, most recently working in Children's Services at the Belleview Branch. She loved working on arts and crafts and enriching the lives of others through culture and literacy with creative children's programs.

All our love, all our lives, your Family and Friends
