Kelsey was my best friend, she was my person, that’s how we referred to each other. Words cannot describe how much she was loved for she touched the lives of so many.
I have so much to say but can’t seem to get the words out for the tears are still running down my face with all the thoughts of her and the time we had together. She showed what true friendship really is… I never really knew until I meant her. She helped me laugh again. She helped me to love and accept myself once again and to find the beauty that all of life has to offer. She lifted me up when I was down with all her love and kindness and she showed me that I was never alone. I always felt loved. I thank God for bringing her into my life.
My Love, thought and prayers go out to her Family and friends. She will be missed.
