Kelsey Nicole Veldman

I am so sorry to hear about Kelsey passing away. I spent a lot of time with her in Reno and her spunk, giant smile, and carefree attitude were always contagious! She will be truly missed. I'm angry, frustrated, and confused that it had to come to this. May we all continue to fight this terrible disease together in her name. My condolences to her friends and family. We will miss you, friend.

I am so sorry for your loss. I was deeply saddened to hear the news. Kelsey was one of a kind and really knew how to light up a room. I have many memories of her that I will hold on to. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

I am stunned to hear about Kelsey. I was out of town the week it happened and am so sorry not to have made the services. Kelsey was warm, sweet, loving, sensitive, and caring. The world should feel such a loss of someone like her. I only hope that her life will help others with theirs. I will miss her.

Greg, sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Your presence will be missed at the reunion but I know you will be with us in spirit.

I am sorry for your loss and send your family my condolences. I worked with Kelsey for a little bit and in that brief time she taught me alot about myself and touch all of our hearts. I'm just now receiving this news in Japan and I'm speechless. My prayers are with you and your family.

To the Veldman family:
My deepest condolences to all of you. Although I never knew Kelsey, I'm sure she was the light of your lives and will be sorely missed. (PS - I went to McCallum with Greg).
