Michelle C. Collins, Daughter of Charles Clarke (Psychology)


It is with a heavy heart that I inform the college community of the passing of Michelle Christine Collins, daughter of Colleen McGuinness-Clarke and Charles Clarke (Psychology). Michelle passed away unexpectedly on July 28 from a long-term illness.

In addition to her parents, Michelle is survived by her beloved son, Charlie Fischbauer; husband, Ken Fischbauer; along with her grandmother, three sisters, four brothers, and many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.

An alumna of the college, Michelle studied liberal arts during her time at MCC. A private funeral was held in early August.

In lieu of flowers and to honor Michelle’s memory and passion for the arts, please consider a gift to the MCC Foundation. Gifts made in her memory will help MCC fine arts students cover the costs of books and supplies. Condolences may be sent to Colleen and Charles Clarke, 242 Mendon-Center Road, Honeoye Falls, NY 14472.
