My condolences to her family. I just found out and I am so so so saddened. I worked with Kelly a lot and she always made us all laugh and smile. When I lost three very close people to me in the end of 2021 and beginning of 2022 Kelly was always there for me. Sending me messages to check on me, bringing me grief books to work, and letting me know how she handled some of the losses she endured. I am beyond heartbroken. So much love sent to her family.
