Kelly was a great friend and will be dearly missed. The family will be in my thoughts and prayers
A true friend. You will be missed.
I’m so sorry to hear of the passing of Kelly. Prayers for his family especially his son, and grandbabies.
I remember him from high school… a gentle soul! Rest in Peace Kelly!
Rest In Peace Kelly. I would have never got where I am now without your help. I know you helped many people without expecting anything in return. You will be missed by many.
While I was reminiscing today about good times in my youth I thought of my 2 summers at YMCA Camp Lakewood outside of Potosi, MO, maybe 1973 and 1974 give or take a year. I googled the names of two friends I met there and if you were the same Kelly Gridstaff I had as a cabin-mate my first year, and from your photo I am 99% sure it WAS you, then I am very sorry to learn of your passing and the manner in which it happened. It’s such a long time ago but we had an outstandingly good time that year and I will not forget those experiences. You and I hit it off immediately as friends on day one because of your outgoing, fun-loving personality. Such a great time that was. Rest in peace Kelly.
