Nicholas Bellinger Obituary

BELLINGER,
Nicholas Daniel
Of Pine City, NY
Entered this world on November 30, 2008, with his sisters, Lexie Marie and MacKenzie Rae. He became Heaven's newest angel on Saturday, January 9, 2010, and was greeted there by his beloved grandfather, Raymond Bellinger; and aunt, Kerrie Bellinger, who preceded him in death. He is survived by his loving mother, Kelley Bellinger; beloved grandmother, Kathleen Bellinger; adored sisters, Lexie and MacKenzie; God parents, Andrew and Mary Kay Bellinger; great-aunts and great-uncles, Kenneth (Ann) Bellinger of Pine City, NY, Mary (Austin) Thomas of Breesport, NY, Pat (Wes) Grist of Gresham, OR, Norman Bellinger of Oklahoma, James (Cheryl) Bellinger of Elmira, NY, Daniel (Camilla) McKlevis of Orchard Park, NY, Robert (Jeannette) McKlevis of Louisiana, MO, Michael (Vickey) McKlevis of Horseheads, NY, Christopher (Wendy) McKlevis of Elmira, NY; along with several second and third cousins. Although his time on earth was all to brief, we will never forget his contagious smile that could literally light up a room. Family and friends are invited to gather at the Olthof Funeral Home, Inc., 1050 Pennsylvania Ave., Elmira/Southport, NY on Tuesday, January 12, 2010, from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. Funeral services will follow the visitation with the Reverend Rick Farrell celebrating Nicholas's life. Interment will take place privately at the convenience of his family in St. Peter & Paul's Cemetery. Memorial donations may be directed to the Children's Miracle Network, c/o AOMC, 600 Roe Ave., Elmira, NY 14905; or to Southern Tier Hospice, 11751 East Corning Road, Corning, NY 14830 in his memory.

Kelly - you KNOW mom, dad and I understand your pain. We aren't supposed to bury our children. There are no words to take your pain away and it's impossible to believe that time will soften your pain. I believe with my whole heart that God gave you your son because He knew that's where he belonged. Trust that Nicholas knows how much he's loved by his mom, his sisters, his grandma and his entire family. Nicholas will never leave you. His spirit will always be with you, the girls and your mom. Please know you're loved. We're here to support you and the girls and your mom always. I love you, Kelly.
