"To the family of Renee Kelly...we are so sorry for your loss. We met Renee at a Trivia party. She was turly a light and the spark of the party. She actually told us she was dying and we didn't know she was actually serious. She looked at us and said "yea, actually I am". We were stunned to hear of her passing even though she had accepted it and was ready to "move on" as she put it. And so she has. We will keep you and your family in our prayers, Renee. Even though we didn'y know you that well, you still made a lasting impression on us that will last forever. May you, and all the souls of the faithfully departed, rest in peace. Until we meet again...."
In loving memory of
Renee M. Kelly
