My heart aches today at the news of Kelly´s passing. She was without a doubt one of the kindest person I have ever known. I was blessed to work with Kelly in Facets Configuration at CareSource. She always had a smile and a positive word for everyone. I will always remember her sweet disposition! She is now our Angel, and I know without a doubt that she is with the Lord! Rest In Peace, Kelly! Your work is done. Love, Donna O
