Mike...her daughter called me this afternoon...I was like what?????  I feel so bad for her family....and let it be known Kelly did not pass from any complications due to WLS. Kelly was an epilitic and she had a seziure in the bathtub.

Kelly was Kelly...she did have some major hardships in her life...she was a good gal....hillariously blond if you ask me!!! I am just glad that Kelly's last years were lived healthy from WLS and that she looked kick ass!!!

Wow I am still shocked to get that phone call!

  

Mikey,

Thank you for letting us know.  My prayers and deepest condolenses are with her family.

I cannot believe this has happened. I am totally shocked and very sad of  Kelly's passing.  I will remember her always. She was so full of life.

I talked to Kelly a few months back and she was in a very happy place in her life after a few speed bumps. Here is her email:

 

OMG, has life changed or what!

I am finally getting on with life as well! I hade my own hell to overcome as do we all. I'd love to get to talk to you and catch up! I have a new cell number hell if I know it by heart however here is my email...

This was really great to read Nads.  It is what and who she was.  Thank you for sharing.

I am sooo deeply sorry to hear this news.  Kelly was a wonderful woman.. and a crack up.  She had been through a lot in life... and made no secret of it, especially if what she went through helped someone else. 

She was a beautiful woman, inside and out and will be deeply missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with her family...    Rest in peace..

Damn - I'm so sorry to hear about Kelly's passing.

I had the opportunity to chat with Kelly at past OH events and have followed her journey...

God bless you, Kelly, and your family

Dolly and I are so deeply saddened by Kelly's passing. 

Her early death is such a reminder about how fragile life is and how we have to live each day to it's fullest.  It also reminds me of the bond that many of us have built on the OH Cali Board.  We may not post often or attend events anymore, but we continue to be connected and affected by each other's journey.

Our prayers are with her family and friends and the OH community.

With the children's permission, I have this to forward from the family:

To Whom it may concern;

This e-mail is to inform everyone that on 10/14/2008 Ms. Kelly
Carter passed away. She had an unfortunate accident and did not make
it. We will be holding a memorial service for her. She always wanted a
celebration of life not a funeral. We will be remembering her at her
best!
The memorial service will be held at Chapel of the Valley Mortuary.
1755 E. Ave R. Palmdale, California 93550 @11 am on 10/24/2000.

****In Lieu of flowers we will have a memorial fund for my mother and
her children. Antelope Valley Bank will be accepting any contributions
for this as of Tuesday. Thank You.

We look forward to seeing all of her friends and family.

Sincerely,
Bonnie, Jessica, and Brian ( Her Kids)


God Bless!!!!
