My condolences to Bruce Keiser's family and friends. I am an old, last long lost friend of Kellie and Michael's. I knew Jim, Vickie, Kellie & Mike when we all lived in the Elsworth Garden Apartments. I believe the complex was in Edgemont or Sunnymeade. I remember the Riverside racetrack was across the street from the apartment complex. I often wondered why their family moved to California. I never met Bruce, but now know that he was an important part of their lives to bring them all the way out west. Out of curiosity I was looking up Kellie and Michael, which long lost friends do over time, to see if I could find any information on them. I was saddened to hear about their loss. My name is Michelle Webster, but I went by the last name of Carlson. Kellie was my best friend when I was 11 and she was 12. I want to send my condolences and my information in case Kellie would like to contact me. My email address is [email protected]. She could find me on facebook under the same email address.
My prayers and thoughts are with everyone during this trying time.
Sincerely,
Michelle Webster
