My dearest family friends,
I am so sorry you are going through a difficult time right now. Kelly (mom) was a super lady, a very good friend, and an awesome parent. Her legacy will live on through you for the rest of your lives. My deepest condolences for such a tragic and sudden event. But it gives me peace to know that she went ahead of my mother so she could take her hand, go to heaven and laugh together for eternity. I love you very much. I have and will for all of time. Kelly Mom will be missed, especially her humor and wit. Now I know where you guys get it from. Sending many prayers to you and the family, for as many blessings as possible. Keep your hearts and souls with the Lord, for He shall bless you with love and peace always.

Kelly,

You were the best mother-in-law that I could have asked for. I am so thankful to have been accepted by you and your family so easily. I was able to talk to you about things I could not talk to my own mother about and you never judged me. You may have wanted to smack me, but never judged. I love you so very much and I miss walking into the house and hearing about what book you are reading and whether or not you like the characters! Thank you again for all that you gave me over the years! I love you!
