Kelly was amazing. She was intelligent, focused, and beautiful. She was a lot like her mother. She didn’t brag or need to put herself on display. She knew who she was. I can’t believe she has left us so soon, but I accept the will of the Lord. May God grant your family peace and comfort in this hard transition. Blessings.

Kelly is my beautiful baby sister. I used to change her diapers and carry her around. I remember I was trying to get her to lift weights. I am beyond devastated that this happened. She was a heart of gold. A butterfly so bold. I love you with all my heart. Big sis Yvonne
