Thank you for this beautiful writing. Thank you also for bringing Kelly into this world so that she could help me and countless others who suffered with her in so many ways. Kelly was a faithful attendee at our weekly Bible study and will be missed. We will honor her this week at the study and of course pray for your family and the rest of the people who will always have a space in their hearts for her beautiful soul. She is gone, but she will not be forgotten. Shalom.
