Kelly’s Grandchildren loved her so much. She was a very pleasant person to be around. I know they will miss her along with Matt, Stevie and others. There is comfort, knowing she is healed from pain and is with the Lord.
Kim Renee Pilgrim says
Joe Pilgrim was my high school sweetheart, and eventually we were married and have two beautiful girls. So I’ve known Kellie for many years. She always called me Kim Renee, because her sisters name was Kim, so they’re were two Kim Pilgrims!! I always remember her dancing to the Rolling Stones song Beast of Burden when she came to our house. Kellie always kept in touch with me and my girls throughout the years. I know she loved all of us and we all loved her as well. She had a great sense of humor, always made us laugh!! She loved music, and she could dance. Kellie was the person who everybody loved to see coming to family gatherings and parties!! She will be missed by us all. I love you Kellie.

I meet Kellie and her family when I was 14 years old. I use to ride my bike to her house. Thought the world of her family as well. Her brother was in the same class and went with us to Fla for our senior trip. Rember Kim at a young age always dancing. Joe would be doing magic tricks. I always thought and loved the whole Pilgrim family. Rest in peace Kellie and tell Big Steve I said Hey when you meet him in heaven .
