Kelly was so special to my girls & I. I started getting my hair done with Kelly 17 years ago. I've watched her grow into a success business owner & a beautiful wife & mother. We had so many wonderful conversations together. We shared life's tragedies and triumphs. Always laughing at each appointment. She was truly a beautiful soul! My heart breaks for her family. I will miss her terribly. Keeping the Cramer & Miller families in our prayers.

Kelly was one of the nicest people I will ever have the pleasure of knowing. She was my hair stylist for the past 8 years but soon became a very good friend. My thoughts and prayers are with her family. She will be so missed.

This is just tragic. I recognized the name but when I saw her picture, it just brought back her gracious smile. She did my hair for YEARS..and we laughed every time. I called her KELLY KELLY. I remember when she told me she was engaged and I said--"well I know his dad." Please accept my deepest sympathy. She will be missed terribly.

I was so heartbroken to hear of Kelly's passing. She was my stylist for many years and we had so many wonderful conversations regarding our kids (she graduated a few years prior to mine), vacations and just life in general. She was a shining light that has gone out to soon. My thoughts and prayers are with her family. She will be missed.

My heart broke today when I heard the news of Kelly's passing. My daughter and her were good friends all through school and into their adult lives. I watched her grow from a young girl who use to love "New Kids on the Block" into a beautiful woman with a savvy business sense. I have been a client of hers for many years. She never failed to make you feel special. I want Brad and her kids to know that although her life was cut way too short they made the time she had on this earth with them full of love and good times. She talked often of Brad and the kids, the lake house, and you just knew she thought she had a wonderful life and she did. I pray for all of her friends and family that they will find peace in a world where one of its brightest stars has gone out.

I am so sorry for your loss. I was Kelly's middle school math teacher. During those years, I remember her as being a kind, friendly student. She was liked by students and staff. I pray God will comfort the family during this difficult time. Karen Corson Miller

May God hold you all close in your grief. The world will never be the same without her light. Kelly was a doll and her laughter was the best. I will miss her texts sharing with me decorating and fashion tips. She loved her family so very much.
