Bren,
The pain and grief will never go away, losing you hit everyone here like a sledgehammer. The memories, the laughs, the crazy moments, even the silly troubles we had take the sharp edge away but the hurt will stay forever. You will never be forgotten. So often we told you how proud we were of you and how much we loved you well I'm here to tell you again, we love you and miss you. There's a hole in the Kelly Clan and it can never be filled. Rest in Peace BTK.
Dad, Linda & Keara

Mary,
I cannot begin to imagine the pain and heartache you are feeling now. We were so saddened when Kim told us of your loss. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. We have a son of similar age and cannot imagine the pain of losing him. God bless you and give you courage in the difficult weeks and months ahead.

Mary,
We just received the news about the passing of Brendan. Please know that our prayers are with you and your family. "And we know that in all things, God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to His purpose." (Romans 8:28) We have found that this Bible passage has gotten us through many rough times. God will comfort and guide you, trust in Him.
Sincerely,

Though I could not be there with you all, I just wanted to let you know my thoughts and prayers are with Mary, John and all of Brendans family. I dont think I ever got a chance to tell Brendan how very proud I was of him, he joined the service not to long after Sept. 11, , he seemed to be protecting my family and as well he was. He was Brave, he was couragious, he was fearless and he was tough. To stand beside him and walk through his pain, would have humbled me. So Lord now that Brendan has been called to serve in your Army, please watch over him, and all the other Miltary. Brendan has assured us our Freedom, he is why we are called " Land of the Free", he did his part, and now he has other work to do, so Lord as your Bugle calls, pray For Mary and John and all of Brendans friends and family, we will miss him greatly but you needed him more. and Brendan some day, i will be able to tell you Thank You
