Kelly was a part of my family in different ways for over 40 years. She always had a big smile and took her time to stop and chat.
Her struggles were hard and she was so proud to have conquered her addictions,300+ days clean and sober, we are all so very very proud of her.
I’ll miss running in to her.
Let your pride shine Kelly,rest easy in the arms of the angels.
love you sweet lady.
