To Joe and Elaine, the sisters and brothers of Kelly and all her relatives and legions of friends:
I cannot believe I am doing this as it seems like a dream as these things are not supposed to happen to someone so young, so beautiful and so full of life. And Kelly was all of that and more. Always a beautiful and sweet young lady, she was one you would always love to meet.
On behalf of my entire family, I want to express our sincere grief and condolences over Kelly's death.
We were taught, "We know not where or when," but it is still so difficult and painful to accept something like this.
As St. John (15:16) tells us of the words of Jesus who said, "Remember, man, it was not you who chose Me but I who chose you." In choosing Kelly, He knew what he was getting and what a beautiful choice it was.
I regret that I will be unable to be with you tomorrow in person but I will definitely will be there in spirit.
I know that Kelly is Resting in Peace and while I pray for her, I also pray for those she loved and left behind, thsy will have te courage and strength to endure the heartache which lies in from of them for the next few days and Unti We Meet Again!

Elaine, Joe, Kara, Joey, Packie, James, Gregory, Bart & Jim, when I think of Kelly, I of course, think of my many cherished childhood memories filled with laughter, loyalty, fun, mischievousness, silly teenage girl antics, an unbreakable bond & admiration. As you know well, we were inseparable during a very important time in our lives. Not to mention, I was honored to have Kelly standing by my side as one of my treasured bridesmaids during another what will always be a cherished time in my life.
Although our respective adult life paths distanced us, I've had & always will have a very special place in my heart for my dear friend, Kelly Ann Timilty! Jim, I never had the pleasure of meeting you, but being Kelly's husband I'm certain you are a wonderful & blessed man. Please accept my most sincere & hearfelt condolences...I'm so very sorry for your monumental loss...May God bless & take care of all of you during this very difficult time! xo

Dear Elaine and Joe
I was so sorry to read about your terrible loss. I remember Kelly from the 79 campaign and worked with her a little bit at the Council, and she was always warm, friendly and sweet -- except when she was angry about someone getting a bum deal from some obscure government agency. Then she was tough, passionate and relentless. That apple did not fall far from the tree.
Love and Peace to you all,
Judy Meredith

Words can not express how saddened I am to hear the news of Kelly's death. I have so many memories of Kelly that go back to the ninth grade at Newton. We would cause all kinds of trouble and somehow I was always the only one who would get caught. Kelly enjoyed reminding me of that for the rest of her life. Kelly was an original in every way. She was loyal and brave. I feel so lucky to be fortunate to call Kelly my friend...I'll miss you Kel and I love you. Save a seat for me... --- Moe Quinn
