Friends, Neighbors Set up Memorial Page for St. Michael Teen

Neighbors and friends of Michaela Olson have set up the site to remember Michaela and help the Olson family.

As a St. Michael neighborhood , some friends and neighbors have taken to the Internet to help assist the Olson family. 

Hollee Saville and Peggy Steinert have set up WeLoveMichaela.com, a site where friends can leave photos and sign a guestbook, and those who want to help the family with funeral expenses or make a donation to Michaela's youth group can do that, as well.

The group is also leading a "Meal Train" for the family, providing meals for Michaela's parents and two surviving siblings over the next few weeks. More information on the Meal Train can be found here
