DeAnn and family...you are in my thoughts and prayers. Kelly has always been someone I looked up. It has been so long since I have seen him...but the memories are strong. Scott thought the world of Kelly, and I am glad he was able to officiate. They were best of friends - brothers in Christ. God Bless you all.

To the entire Fenwick family, I was shocked and saddened to hear of Kelly's passing. I will always remember what a great job Kelly did of molding a group of 7th graders into what was to become the 1999 Class "A" Indiana State Basketball Champions. The confidence those kids where able to show under his direction was a testiment to his dedication and passion. It was a pleasure & honor to have known him.

So very sorry to hear of your - our -- loss.
I always enjoyed seeing Kelly at the reunions... he was so jovial, friendly, and so much the "dad".
We will keep you in our prayers.
Understanding your pain, your questions, your grief, and your feelings of total loss...we rejoice that by the grace of God and in the sacrifice of Christ Jesus, Kelly's journey is complete and destination secure.
With love and deepest sympathy we are with you in spirits today. We could not make the trip.

It's always such a sad event when one of our loved ones is taken from us so early in life. The unexpectedness just seems to make it harder to understand. My heart goes out to your family, I've been there. You have to find peace in the fact that he is in a better place now than he has ever been. The scar will never heal but the pain will ease with time. He made such an impression on so many people, he will be missed by them all. May God bless your family and be with you in your time of sorrow.
If there is anything at all that I can help with please let me know.

Deann, my prayers are with you and your family. It won't be the same going to Tecumseh games and not seeing Kelly. (Mike Devine)

Kelly (Mr. Rockefeller around our shop) will be greatly missed. My heart sunk this morning when I received the news. I always enjoyed Kelly's boisterous entrance into my shop. Also loved seeing a man of his size with that little dog. Kelly always made me laugh and I truly am grateful for getting to meet such a great guy. Prayers to your family.

You will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers for all of the families. Heaven gained another angel a bit too soon but he has called you home. Sorry I will be unable to make the trip to the funeral, in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless. Angie Lindsay-Williams & Family (Noblesville, Indiana)

DeAnn words cannot express what you must be going through right now. My heart breaks for you, Jordan and your family.
I am reading a book called "Heaven is for Real"...it is a true story about a 4 year old boy and his encounter with Heaven. I hope you can find comfort in knowing that Kelly is now experiencing that Real Heaven and you will be together again someday.
May God bless you and give you strength to get through the next few days.

Deann, we are so sorry to hear about Kelly. I know that it's hard to understand what happened, but remember one day you will all be together again. Your all in our prayers.

Our sympathy to DeAnn, Jordan, Bob Bunner and all of your families. You have been in our thoughts and prayers ever since we heard and you will stay there.
We can really sympathize with you as our Scott was 48 when he died unexpectedly on New Years Eve of Cardiac Arythmia. I know the shock is almost unbearable, but God will stay with you.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

DeAnn I am so sorry for your loss. Kelly was a joy to be around. He seemed to make the teams play harder when he was playing sports back at Tecumseh. I am so sorry. He will be greatly missed.
