Another year has come and gone Kellie.You would be 33 years old on July 5th. I remember still my doctor telling me I was not to have you on the 4th. Every year he had a huge 4th of July party at his house and he did not want to have to leave because of you. So on the 4th I walked three blocks to the fireworks at the high school in Highland. Those huge booms shook me and you did not seem overly impressed either. By 1 AM you had held out long enough and let me know it. I remember the awe I felt - holding you - my first child and it seemed so unreal. It still does knowing you are gone and I have not been able to hold you for 17 years. Happy 33rd in heaven Kellie. You are missed every single day. I went to the cemetery today but it is just your mark here on earth. Sending all my love. Mom

I still sit and wonder what you would be doing today where your life will be. What would my kids think of you what would you think of them. I wish you were here to talk to about life. I often talk out loud as if you were here. You were taken to soon.. Miss you and love you!

I can still see your smile
For I have memorized your face.
I can still hear your laughter,
the sound of your voice,
that time can never erase..
For I hold beautiful memories in my heart,
and love will always keep us close,
though heaven and earth apart.

Kell,
I sit here in my house and think about you often.. It does not seem like years but days ago you were here.. I think to myself if you were here what would you be doing... What you would think and have to say about your nephews and that you will now have a niece. I still think its unfair that you were taken away from all of us. People say it gets easier in time, but honestly it does not. We learn to mask how we feel and think about you now being here. No one ever gets over the fact that your gone. I try to put on that happy face when things are going good but I always think what my big sister would have to say about it.. I love you always Miss you daily and will keep your memory alive

My mother recently passed away and I take comfort in knowing that she will be looking down on me just like you do your family. Even though people you love leave this world it never means they leave your heart.
Missing you always and forever Mom

Like A Comet
Blazing 'Cross The Evening Sky
Gone Too Soon
Like A Rainbow
Fading In The Twinkling Of An Eye
Gone Too Soon
Shiny And Sparkly
And Splendidly Bright
Here One Day
Gone One Night
Like The Loss Of Sunlight
On A Cloudy Afternoon
Gone Too Soon
Like A Castle
Built Upon A Sandy Beach
Gone Too Soon
Like A Perfect Flower
That Is Just Beyond Your Reach
Gone Too Soon
Born To Amuse, To Inspire, To Delight
Here One Day
Gone One Night
Like A Sunset
Dying With The Rising Of The Moon
Gone Too Soon

Wanted you to know you are still thought of often. Last weekend I sat with some old friends and talked about our infamous "TP" disaster on your birthday! Just one of the memories that make me smile. Miss you Kell

Kellie, I still cant believe it has been 12 years already it seems like yesterday we were picking fights just to get mom going or you teasing me or us sharing stories of our days with each other. I wish everyday that you were so I could talk to you about whats going on , get your advice in what to do, and like always make me smile. You were not only my blood to me you were my best friend, my only Sister. I thought by now it would have gotten easier but it does not. I can just look forward to the one day I get to see you again and then you can tell me where I went wrong like a big sister does. I love and miss you more every day

I love and miss you Kell

Happy 27th Birthday Kellie (July 5). We were only a day apart so I never forget. I remember when we were very young and we had that party at your old apartment in Dyer and made tie-die shirts. I still have the picture your mom gave me after your funeral. Who would have thought life would be so different now. May you rest in peace. I'm sure it is beautiful where you are.

Kelli. Happy 27th Birthday! Your missed more then imaginable. I talk to you everyday like you are still here, even though it has been 11 years and counting. You are my only sister and I miss and love you so much. You will never be forgotten in my eyes.

On my 12th Mother’s Day without you…
In the broad fields of heaven,
In the immortal bowers,
Dwelling by life’s clear river,
Amid undying flowers;
Myriads of beauteous spirits,
Fair children of the earth,
Linked in bright bands celestial,
Sing of their human birth.
They sing of earth and heaven –
Divinest voices rise,
In thanks and praises unto Him
Who called them to the skies.
The golden haired and blue eyed,
That lighted up our life,
And folded were, within our hearts,
From all the world’s strife;
The blessings of our bosoms,
The stars upon our sky,
The flowers up-springing in our path,
Too beautiful to die;
They are all there in heaven,
Safe, safe, and sweetly blessed;
No cloud of sin can shadow
Their bright and holy rest.
Forever missed and loved - Mom

It has been so long but you're always thought of. When things go wrong and I don't know if I can make it through another day I remember that this life was given to me and I should live it to its fullest. You weren't given that chance. Each and every one of us who knew you live life in some way for you.
THE 3M!!

Kellie, I often think of all the times Mom, you and I hung out together. The 3M! I cherish those times always. Kolbie and Jacob talks about you often and just yesterday each sent you a ballon up to heaven for you. Things have not been the same nor will they ever since that fateful night. Sometimes it is still hard to believe that you are gone let alone 10 years have pasted by. I love you and I miss you Kell. LOve and miss you always, Krit

Kellie,
Although I have no memories of you, since we never met, it isn't hard to imagine the kind of girl you were. Your mother explains your beauty and good character in her poems and everything she says.I always wish things were different back then, so I could have met you and got to know you a little better. Pictures only can describe your beauty, but I would have liked to meet the real beauty inside. As always, I pray for you, your family and loved ones to be reunited with you in time to come. May God bless you and all your loved ones and keep them dear. I can only imagine how much you must be watching over your mother and sister and your your two nephews.
You are their Guardian angel.

Kellie,
Another year.
Time seems untouchable, unable to be contained...
In our hearts you remain and always will. Muchos besos to those you left behind. May they be reminded that you were a reflection of God's greatness here on earth.
I feel the presence of your spirit when I dance, the energy encapsulates me. The music frees me from this physical captivity and for one second I feel that I am soaring with you - passing by others with the most incredible truth in the world. The truth that time waits for nothing. Thank you for helping me see the importance of living each day to its fullest.
Bless you Kellie, in this life and beyond...
Te Amor mucho,
Janelle Renee

I was so blessed to have Kellie as a friend.. Although so much time has passed, I think of her almost daily. I hope she looks down at us from heaven and is proud of the lives we all live and the people we have become. I will never forget....

I was at the cemetary yesterday visiting my best friends child's grave. She showed me her son's picture and told me she got the idea from Kellie's plaque. We stopped by her area and I read the beautiful poem. I read it outloud and it was hard for me to get through it. Your daughter was a very beautiful girl. Her memorial at Memory Lane is just as beautiful.

In memory of Kellie's 25th birthday.
Birthd ays are a time for celebration
Not a time for tears
But what happens when the birthdays
No longer mark the years
A birthday marks the moment
A spirit enters earthly life
To share its special love and joy
And learn from earthly strife
Before a spirit comes to us,
It knows when and how it must depart
It chose its path carefully,
We are honored from the start
The sadness we now feel on such a joyus day
Is longing for our loved one's touch
It's natural to feel this way
For even though the birthdays
No longer mark a spirit's stay
Love continues on forever
To touch us everyday
I hug my precious memories
Close to my heart
And honor my beloved spirit child
Who chose me from the start

Happy Birthday Kell Bell We all miss you so much and will see you again when The good Lord calls us home.

Today, as always you are remembered.
For most of us, life has continued, we have started careers or were blessed to begin a family of our own. The children remind us of how precious each and every day is...
We reflect back to the time when you left this world and how much you were missed. The void will never be filled. And perhaps it is not meant to - it is a piece of you that we hold in our hearts, a constant reminder of the brightness that exists in this world. Like a Comet that burns bright, touching the lives of many, but passes too soon to contain.
In our hearts you will remain.
Always,
Janelle and Jessica

So many facets of life
we fail to understand,
and
maybe we weren't meant to
while walking on God's land...
but
surely Heaven must be a beautiful place,
to be graced
with your face,
the one I love.
March 6, 2004
I'm Free
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,
I'm following the path God has laid you see.
I took his hand when I heard his call.
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way
I found the peace at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void
Then fill it with remembered joys -
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss
Oh yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I wish you the sunshime of tomorrow.
My life's been full I savored much,
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief
Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee -
God wanted me now, he set me free.

We miss you but at times we feel that you are here with us. Watching old videos of you, your sister and cousins makes us laugh and wonder. Wonder what you would have done with your life if it had not ended so soon. Who you would have helped, what you would have accomplished, would you have had a family, where would you be living, all go unanswered. What do bed bugs bite… pink toes.
We think back on many stories …such as the walnut story or deer stories and again wonder what new stories we would have to enjoy if you had not been taken from us .

Kellie, not a day goes by that some memory of you doesn't run through my head. There are so many things that I would like to share with you. You are the best friend a girl could ever have, and I am honored to know and share with others that you were mine. You took a little piece of me with you, and I know that it is only so that one day you can find me. With love to you and all those you left behind... I really miss you, Meredith aka Froggy

Kellie was only here with us for such a short time but made such an impact on so many lives. We miss her and think of her often. Thanksgivings are different without you and your infectious laughter. I know you and Aunt Didi are watching us from above. We love you and miss you sweetie!
Love, Aunt Peg

Through the years, we have all grown and learned many life long lessons. One thing I have learned is that we are all here on Earth with a purpose from God. It is obvious that your purpose was to teach people about love. I only hope that each of us can fulfill God's wishes as flawlessly as you.

I recently watched a video of Kellie and the nieces at the annual Thanksgiving get together at the farm. It was so good to see her laugh and talk. The best part was the impromtu talent show. It made me laugh so hard. I miss her and the family misses her.

I did not know Kellie very well, if at all. But she is a step sister to my 4 children and they all thought very highly of her and spoke of her kindly. They all miss her and I know there is a void in there family gatherings. I wish I could have known her because she is a very beautiful girl and from what I hear a very, very sweet one also. God bless her mother and sister and keep them in her memory forever.

I have so many wonderful memories of Kellie, she would always greet me with HI T. When she was little she could not pronounce my name so I became T instead of Tricia. I am still called that today. I am so grateful that she was able to hold and love both my children. However, she did take Ashley for a car ride one day and did not ask my permission. My first clue should of been when Ashley, for the next week would sing the song, "Wild Thing." Seems during this ride Kellie taught Ashley and new song!! I loved it when Kellie dyed Kristie's hair jet black and I happen to stop over that night. Oh boy Jane was really mad. That is one time when it pays to call first! So many beautiful memories that I cherish today and hold close to my heart. I know that she watches over all of us. I will forever hold her close and love her and one day I will see her again.
Love and missing you, Aunt T.

K is for the kisses she gave to me each day, for the kindness she gave willingly, to those who passed her way.
E is for the emptiness, each day its felt anew. And for her eyes that sparkled, the color--baby blue.
L is for her laughter, I wish once more to hear, learning to live without her; and the ache to hold her near.
L is for her loving ways; the special love we shared, for her lovely face I long to see and the smile that said she cared.
I for the impression she left on those she knew, the importance of her life on earth, though her days were numbered few.
E is for eternity, for she'll always be a part--of all of us, for she left behind her embrace upon our hearts.
With love, Mom
