I knew Kelly (then Mr. Mayhew) first as my youth group leader along with his wife, Becky. Then, later as a graphic designer for my company. He was truly a great person to know. His strong faith in God is an example to many and I always admired his artistic and musical talent and his great sense of humor. He's greatly missed and our prayers are with his family.

Mr. Mayhew was a great example to all those that he touched. His courage and faith are both something to be attained. He was an outstanding artist, a top notch musician, a downright funny guy, but more than all that, he was a Christian who "fought the fight" well and we are all better for having known him. We will miss him, but we know, his "faith is now sight."
