Kellie M. Finch

Kellie, you are missed! Thinking of you today and everyday ? Randall and Sue - cherish the memories; I know it has been a hard year, for everyone. She was loved~

Dear Finch Family,
I'm so blessed to have all of you in my life and I am so sorry about Kellie - she is so deeply missed. Your entire family is the kindest, most loving family that I've ever had the honor of knowing. I've enjoyed every minute spent with every "Finch." You are all so precious to me and I'm so sorry for your pain. God bless and keep you all - I love you!

I was in Girls Scouts with Kellie for several years and have lots of great memories of her. I will always remember our survival badge camping trip when we got dumped in the woods and had to find our way back to camp and sharing a room with Kelley at the Lead the Way conference. Kellie even inspired me to become vegetarian! Kelley was a great inspiration and she will be missed. My condolences as you deal with her loss.

Hi Sue, my condolences. Michelle just let me know, and I am so sorry for your loss. I know this is hard. I empathize. I lost my mother too, not too long after we finished our program. I can honestly say the loss is still painful, but I know she would want me to go on. Your daughter would want that for you too. You are taking the first steps. Missing her will be foremost in your mind for a long time, but before you know it, you will start to feel better. I am hoping you are well, as I...

How do you say goodbye to someone when you weren't ready for them to go? Kellie - I had been looking forward to seeing you, sitting in my backyard watching my silly dog chase lizards. I knew you would laugh at 145 pounds of dopiness chasing after a little lizard.

Kellie has been a part of my life for many years - I first met her at camp where I was her counselor, then her supervisor and somewhere in there we became friends. From Kellie I learned how easy it is to have a positive...

Dear James, Sue, Randall, Tim and Lindsey,

I wish that I had the words to express how much my heart aches for you all and I wish I knew what to say to make you all feel just a little better. I pray you know that Kellie's spirit is with you all and she knows how much you all love and miss her.
Kellie left footprints for the world to follow and memories that will not fade over time. Her spirit touches everyone that was blessed to come in contact with her and she was more than blessed...

Dear Susan, Randall, Lindsey and Tim,

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I met Kellie when she was 14. We backpacked together as counselors out of Skylark Ranch with a group of middle school students at Point Reyes. She was so gentle, and kind, and caring. I have thought of her often since I left California. I am sad to realize she is gone.

Lindsey, Tim, Sue and Randy- I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Kellie was such a special person in my life, despite not having been in touch in recent years. She will always hold a piece of my heart. If there is anything I can do, please let me know.

Kellie- Thanks for having been part of my life. I love you always.

Kellie; the kiddies and I miss you dearly. We were so looking forward to your visit, the kids couldn't wait to see you and hoped you would steal us away to the beaches and drive us through the mountains again. I miss the days we used to escape to the ocean, or backpack through the mountains and stop for ice cream down in Santa Cruz, or drive through Danville for no reason listening to your favorite songs. I wish you could have smelled that ocean breeze one last time.

You were the...
