With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Kelli Sue Guzzo of Waterford, Michigan, on May 19, 2025. Kelli left this world and entered the arms of Jesus at the age of 36. Kelli graduated from Waterford Kettering High School in 2007. She then continued her studies in art, where she thrived. Kelli was bright, talented, and incredibly creative. She had a gift for capturing beauty, both in her paintings and photography, often sharing her creations with family and friends. Her art was truly treasured and will be forever cherished. Above all, Kelli was a tender, patient, and encouraging mother who loved her boys, Noah and Jack, deeply. She will be greatly missed and fondly remembered. She is survived by her former spouse, Brandon Guzzo, and her two beautiful boys, Noah and Jack; her parents, Craig Bruske and Susan Petiprin (Timothy); her siblings, Julie McKervey and Brett Bruske (Hannah); her stepsisters, Cheri Petiprin and Tiffany Quinones (Jacob); as well as aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews who loved her dearly. Kelli was preceded in death by her grandparents, James and Ella, and Earl and Patricia. A memorial service will be held at 11:00 AM on Monday, June 2, 2025, at Ottawa Park Cemetery Chapel, 6180 Dixie Hwy, Clarkston, MI 48346.
