I am also a teacher in Francis Howell and was in the same hospital room as Kelli in November. She seemed so upbeat and positive, a good role model for all of us who are battling the beast. My thoughts are with you!

I was a student of Mrs. Griebenow's and had a rough time in high school. I wasn't a great student by any stretch, but she was still very kind and caring. You could tell that she was a wonderful lady, and the world is a poorer place without her.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I was a student of Mrs. Griebenow's about 6 years ago and remember her kind and caring personality. She was a great teacher and even sang our class little songs to help us remember math formulas. I am so sorry to hear of her passing and pray for peace for her family and all who knew her.

What an amazing turnout today to honor Kelli! There isn't a room that exists that could hold all of the people who have been touched by Kelli's goodness! She will be greatly missed, but her many gifts remain scattered among all those that she shared them with.

Kelli will truly be missed. She was an amazing teacher who brought her own style to the classroom. I enjoyed the many lunch breaks together. My prayers are with her family.
