Michelle Styles Hendrix Cannon, 62, of Leesville, passed away on Wednesday, November 5, 2025, at White Oak Manor in Newberry.

She was born on April 14, 1963, in Buncombe County, North Carolina to the late William Styles and Joanna Parker Styles Watts. Michelle's strength, selflessness, and positivity throughout her illness were an inspiration to all who knew her.

Michelle took great pride in her career in the grocery industry, where she built many lasting friendships. She found joy in her work and especially loved visiting with customers and coworkers. She also cherished time spent with her great-nieces, Natalie and Jaymee, and great-nephew, Richard. Her gentle spirit extended to the animals she loved-especially her dogs. Michelle enjoyed days at the lake, good music, beautiful flowers, collecting garden flags, and cheering for the Carolina Gamecocks.

Michelle is survived by her son, Brock Hendrix (Meg); her daughter-in-law, Joleen Hendrix; brothers, Stephen Styles and Carey Styles; grandchildren, Blakely, Carter, Finley, and Ruby Jo and several nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Kenneth Cannon, her son, Blake Hendrix, her sister, Cynthia Templeton and niece Jessica Alligood.

The family wishes to to extend their heartfelt thanks to Bernardo Hospice Care and the staff of White Oak Manor of Newberry for their care and compassion.

Memorials may be made to the Lexington County Animal Services and Adoptions, 321 Ball Park Road, Lexington, SC 29072.
