Funeral Details
A cremation ceremony for the immediate family has taken place.
Jelly was my foster mother for 3 and a half years. She was there as my mother figure when I didn’t have on and she turned me into the wonderful person I am now. She helped me have a better life and she loved me like one of her own. She always put others before her own needs and I am so thankful for her. I will deeply miss her and she will forever be in my heart.

I am deeply saddened by Kelly’s loss. She was a truly beautiful person inside and out. Her children came first. She cheered them on at Track and Field meets, assemblies and other school related activities. She always had a smile on her face. Her heart was always in the right place. Her generosity was like no other. She offered the use of her van and donated toward my Terry Fox Barn Dance Event. She got us started in Fostering years ago, mentoring Dale and I through the process. She even gave me a gas card when she knew that I was taking time off work to support my dad with his advanced cancer. Kelly was such a great person and I know that she will be missed greatly. My condolences to Kim and her kids❤️❤️🙏
Karisa, Sending my deepest sympathy to you and your family.

As a community our heart breaks for Kelly’s extraordinary children, husband and extended family.
Kelly reached out to me and offered her generous heart and ear to me over the years. All that knew her are better for it. There are no comforting words for this pain. Just that Kelly was one of the good ones. A kind and generous soul and I will be forever grateful and humbled by our very private friendship as she held my secrets with love. She rooted me on and was happy for my happiness. She was so very special.
