Publish in a newspaper
Kelly worked for Forest City in Wellington for many years and most recently for Drug Mart. She enjoyed daily visits from her nephew's dog Champ. Kelly cherished time she spent with her nieces, nephews, and great nieces and nephews. She was a devoted daughter and over the past several years cared for her mother.
Survivors include her mother, Mary Lou Bartish; siblings, Vicki Boden, Rhonda Browand, and Josh Mellick; nieces and nephews, Ryan, Landon, Melissa, Olivia, Shannon, and Ally; as well numerous great nieces and nephews. Kelly was preceded in death by her father, Charles Swope; brother, Jason Swope; sister, Lisa Swope; nephews, Joe Boden and Bruce Browand; and great niece, Audre Swope.
A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Norton-Eastman Funeral Home is assisting the family with arrangements and expressions of sympathy may be shared online at www.norton-eastmanfuneralhome.com.
