Dear Susie,
I always will remember Kelly’s laughter and his great big smile.   He always seemed so happy.   Thinking of you.      Marilyn

Dear Susie,
We think of Kelly often and have a daily reminder of him from the  Civil War pictures Jeff purchased from him.  They hang in our downstairs family room.   Thinking of you and Kelly.     Jeff & Marilyn

LTC Thies served his country with great pride and was committed in taking care of Soldiers.  I personally worked with Kelly starting in 2002 when he was assigned to a Command in Birmingham AL.  We worked side by side everyday.  It was a pleasure working with him.  Kelly was also giving.  I was deployed overseas in 2003 and he took the time to attend to my deployment ceremony.  During that time, my parents lost everything in a flood.  Kelly was generous enough to give my parents a television.  He was the only one that came forward and helped my family.  I am so grateful and proud to say we were friends too.  He always had a spark in his eyes when he talked about his girlfriend, Susie.   He loved her to the moon and back!  
Rest in Peace, Kelly.  I will see you again on the other side.  You will always have a special place in my heart!

Kelly you were always there for me,  I'm gonna miss you not giving me advice on what I should do.  I love you! 

Kelly thanks for all the years of service to our country. God must have wanted you to server him this early in life. I will always remember the good times on the deck of the Windjammer. Classmate of 1977.

My parents are Linda and Randy Papendick. My sister, Laura, and I remember many times when Kelly would visit or we would travel to see him. I remember going to see him in Chicago and all the fun we had. He's been an important part of my family's lives - most recently coming to my wedding. For all the smiles, laughs, and kindness he gave us - we will love and miss you Kelly. Our sincerest sympathies to Susie!

I got to know Kelly after I married Jeff.   I remember Kelly's smile and laughter.   He always had a story and then there was his laugh.   Kelly enjoyed spending time with his friends.   I will miss his visits to our home.  Susie,  Thinking of you at this difficult time.   I'm sure Kelly is smiling on you at  the great tribute that you created for him.  Cherish the wonderful memories that you two made.  My sincere sympathy to you.

I will always remember Kelly when we went pheasant hunting one day. Troy was with us that day. we were walking a fence line  and all at once a bird got up in front of Kelly. Kelly took aim and made a beautiful shot, he rolled the bird in the air with the talons sticking strait up in the air. I told Kelly great shot. When we got to the bird it was a hen. You can't shoot hens. Troy will tell that's the story of many of our hunting trips. I will miss Kelly, we talked about collecting cards, coins and civil war items. He was a great friend.

Kelly and I were confirmed and attended the same church. We also graduated High School together. My sympathies to the Thies  Family. In the words from a Christian Hymn. He will Lift you up on Eagles Wings and Hold you in the palm of His hand. RIP in Kelly from your Friend and 1977 Classmate.  TOM FRIED

Kelly was my best friend.  We graduated from High School together and joined the U.S. Army together.  He was ALWAYS there for me and my family.  I'll miss his great sense of humor forever.  Love you buddy.

Kelley was such a great friend , had a lot of good times, he will be missed greatly.

John & Rhonda Gall 

Kelly was one of dearest friends for many, many years and we will forever miss his laughter and solid friendship.  He has always been there for us.
