Kelli, inmiddels 2 jaar geleden dat je overleed. Ben er onlangs achtgekomen. Ik schrok enorm. Ik heb je leren kennen in 1988. Ik kwam voor 3 maanden naar Amerika en was je schoonzusje.
Ik wens Joan en Frank enorm veel liefde toe.

Kelli was the coolest babysitter I ever had. She introduced me to so much great music. I always thought of her as the all American teenager. She was smart and special and I will miss her.

I remember when Kelli was born and how excited we all were - the O’Malley twins Judy and Joan and their husbands, Frank and Wayne were my high school friends - friendship that continued throughout the years. When Kelli was born Carol Lyman Cavanaugh another high school friend and I couldn’t wait to visit Joan & Frank to meet their new baby girl - and when John was born we were excited then too and in awe of his name - so Presidential . It was so much fun for me to see them both grow up and watch Judy and Wayne’s Susan and Wayne succeed in life too - I learned of all they were doing mostly via phone updates. The kids knew me through their parents’ friendship over the years.

One of my most memorable times was when I visited Judy on a couple of occasions in Hanson and got to have dinner with Kelli and Judy and chat for hours with them both - Kelli was so adoring to her aunt, taking such meticulous care for her well being, cooking, and fussing over her - and oh, the dog – how Kelli loved her dog that was so devoted to her. (I personally was afraid of the little dog but Judy reassured me he/she was okay). It was definitely Kelli’s dog, not Judy’s. Judy was so happy to have Kelli living with her and loved seeing Kelli thrive.

Will treasure the times I would call and Kelli would answer and give me updates on how she and her aunt were doing or if she didn’t answer, Judy would pass the phone to Kelli and she would let me know how work was going - as I look back, I met Kelli as a baby, and in her later years most recently, fleeting, but so comforting to see her thrive along with her aunt, my friend. She will be missed and I pray for her family, friends, their loss and especially to her parents, my friends, to treasure those years of love and devotion dedicated to their daughter Kelli.

As I reflect, Kelli’s last years were spent dedicated to not only her work but also to helping others.
With sympathy and love, Marianne Potts Peak.

I have nothing but fond memories of Kelli from my childhood and beyond. We saw one another a lot as kids. As a young girl, Kelli was sweet and "extra" smart. I loved seeing her when we visited her family or went on camping trips to the same parks. For those in the know, think Circle 9! She was sensitive and fragile in her own way and I will miss her very much. This is so sad, she will be in our hearts forever.
With Love and respect, (Chris or as she called me Christopher! In her very distinctive voice). LOL
Rest in peace Kelli - I was very sad to hear that you are gone - I, like many, will have a little hole in my heart.

I LOVE this girl! We met about 1995ish and although Kelli was a little hesitant to befriend me as we seemed so different...we soon became good friends. Kelli and I had many great times together and she was a trustworthy and sincere friend! Kelli was a very genuine person something that I respect in a person. Kelli and I didnt see each other much after I had children and our lifestyles were so different, however, we would occassionally run into each other around Weymouth and catch up and it was as if we had never been apart. I was so sad to hear of Kelli's passing and I am so sad that I will never again run into her at Wessagusset beach or Cathay Center to catch up. God bless you Kelli I will always cherish the times we spent together!❤ Diane
