My Heart, and Prayers Go Out to All of Kelleys Family! I/ve worked at Scotts for the last 22 years, and knew Kelley a little, because we worked in different departments, and different shifts! But everytime we passed in the hallways, or lockerroom, or cafateria, we would always say Hi to each other, and ask each other how we were doing? He always was the nicest Person you could know! Kelley always had something Good to say about everything! He is the kind of Person we would all want to be like, someone to look up to! I Know Scotts will Never be the same without Kelley and He will Never Be Forgotten!! I Believe everyone who knew him, Loved Him! Again, My Heart and Prayers go out to all of His Family and Friends, and Now he is in Heaven with Jesus!! From Brent Spaulding and Family
