Mischelle Aileen Murray Lippe, 49, went to be with her Heavenly Father on December 26, 2009. Though she left us way too soon, we'll never forget the profound impact she had on all of our lives. At the tender age of 16 years old, she met her lifelong sweetheart, Michael Gerard Lippe, in their sophomore typing class at Midwest City High school. They were married on June 9, 1979. Their first born was a son, Christopher Bryan. Then four years later came their daughter, Amber Deanne. They raised their two children in Midwest City, while Mischelle worked as a medical office assistant. When Amber was ten years old, they were blessed with a "little surprise" in Dylan David, their third child. Just a short two years later, Wyatt Austin was born, making their family complete. Being a mother came natural to Mischelle and was her greatest joy in life. In addition to enjoying the kids' games and activities, Mischelle loved family camping trips to the lake. Her family will miss Mischelle's talent for baking and designing custom cakes for special occasions. Hand picking mistletoe and arranging it into little bouquets for all of her family and friends each Christmas was just one of the special traditions she performed each year. We cannot begin to name the many acts of kindness Mischelle performed for neighbors and friends in need over the years. She was a fiercely devoted friend to so many.
Mischelle was reunited with her earthly father, Robert Murray, who preceded her in death in 1999. She is survived by her husband, Michael, of Midwest City; her sons and daughter: Christopher (Randi) of Oklahoma City, Amber Reitz (Josh) of Midwest City, Dylan and Wyatt of the home; she will also be missed by her five grandchildren: Brayden, Jaxon, Zaybree, Liberty, and Delaney. She is also survived by her mother, Joan Murray, of Midwest City; her brother, Kirk Murray of Nicoma Park ; and her sisters: Bambie McNabb of Salt Lake City, and Tina Demers (Dennis) of Keller, TX. Mischelle will be missed by her many nieces, nephews, great- nieces and nephews.
Services will be held Wednesday, December 30th, at 10am, in Candlewood Chapel, with burial at Arlington Memory Gardens under the direction of Ford Funeral Service.
