After marrying Rob, she moved to Las Vegas. Together, they owned a 7-Eleven store for over 30 years. In 1991, Kellie gave birth to twin daughters, Erica Ann and Carlie Jane.

She eventually earned her teaching license at Nevada State College and taught Kindergarten and First grade at Givens Elementary. She recently worked at Faith Lutheran Middle School and High School before her diagnosis, and had been on leave for her cancer treatment.

Kellie loved her family and the Lord very much. She enjoyed traveling and taking vacations with her family. Her favorite destination was Maui, where they took several family vacations, and made great memories together. She also enjoyed walking her dog, Luke, attending a couple's small group Bible study with her husband and celebrating the holidays. Kellie wanted her family and friends to know that she loved them very much.

We want to thank you for all of your prayers and support during her illness. She is now home in Heaven with her Lord and Savior and reunited with family members who went before her.
