Kelli was a kind and gentle person. She was always there to lend a helping hand when needed or just to sit and listen to what you had going on in your life. I truly enjoyed working with her at NSP/RTC. I am so sorry for your loss. Rest in peace Kelli you will be missed.

I am so grateful I got to know Kelli. I loved her sense of humor and her sense of fun. I can’t imagine the last years at NSP without her. She had a very big heart, and she helped many of us through some pretty rough days. She will always be unforgettable in my book!

I’m at a loss for words; this is truly one of the brightest lights extinguished too soon. Kelli, you always had a smile and kind things to say (and even sometimes the hard truths we needed to hear. Our antics with Britt and Dalila are some of my fondest memories from Corrections, and I’m so honored to have been a part of your life and one of your friends. Rest easy.
