Memories and Condolences
for Keely Walsh

Not sure what to say?





December 14, 2015

To Keely's family; I know I'm a year late with this, but I am so incredibly sorry. I didn't know Keely all that well, but I went to school with her and I remember how kind she was to me. I can't even wrap my head around the idea that she's gone. I'm so sorry.

To Keely; I'm sorry I never really got to know you. We only hung out a few times before drifting in different directions. I was never very good with people, but you treated me so kindly despite that. Thank you. I hope you're happy now, wherever you are.

I only knew her for a sliver of time, but in that short amount of time she left an impression on me.something about her always lifted my spirits, and all I can remember now is her smile, and her positive attitude. Its amazing the gifts people can leave unintentionally. She left me a gift of unwavering kindness. Thank you Keely Walsh for touching my life for even a moment. May you rest in peace and watch over your loved ones, and may you meet them again. You shouldn't have left this earth physically, but know you'll always be with them in spirit and in their hearts. I do not have he same beliefs as many, so all I shall say is that I hope you will be reborn again as the same beautiful person, and affect the same amount of lives. Namaste. It is not good bye, just, see you later.

Keely Ree Walsh

God's been watching closely since your day of birth.
His special angel with us here on Mother Earth.

He saw you smile brightly with a twinkle in your eye.
He heard you joke and giggle or laugh 'til you would cry.

He watched you lend a hand or say a special word
To any soul in need.
He knew you took life by the horns,
To prove that you could lead.

But God took you way to quickly.
No chance to say good-bye.
It's not for me to question or
Ask his reason why?

I hope you know how special
You really were to me!
I miss you my sweet Angel
I miss you Keely Ree......


Thoughts and prayers, Peter and Jeannette
