To the Family of Kelbie Nelson:
I was very sad to read about the accident that took Kelbie's short life. My name is Deidre Taylor, previous principal at Blackfoot sixth grade school. Kelbie was a good- natured boy and happy when in a social setting. I know he will be remembered for his interaction with others (he had many friends) and his great personality.
My deepest sympathy to your family.

Kelbie started his sixth grade year in Blackfoot Idaho in my classroom. He was a unique kid. We had some great times. He would find me in the morning on bus duty and just hang out, or come in the classroom in the morning to talk. He left our class mid way through the year. We all missed him.
This is very sad to hear, and I am so sorry.Kelbie will be missed by all of us.
