It is with sad hearts that we had to say goodbye to our sweet, courageous Kelley.

God saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be; So, he put his arms around you, and whispered, "Come with me." With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away; Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
