She’s in heaven…

In support of
Wayne & Kelsey Ritscher

She’s in heaven…and this we can say without a doubt.

At around 7pm tonight (1/7), mom/Kelsey took her final earthly breaths peacefully at home with dad/Wayne at her side, and with Ellie and me (Lacey) right next to him.

The last two weeks were filled with more love and support than we could ever measure. The messages, visits, food, snacks…just everything…we are so grateful. THANK YOU!

We will, of course, be working on the details for arrangements tomorrow. These will be made available on the Phillips Funeral Home website and in The Gazette.

“For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep.” 1 Thes. 4:14

So heartbreaking, but we know Kelsey is in such a wonderful place where she’s no longer in pain or suffering. We felt completely helpless not knowing what we could do to help ease some pain, but know we never quite praying. Kelsey was so loved and will be dearly missed by so many. Sending much love, many hugs and prayers to you all.

We are absolutely heartbroken for you all. Kelsey was such an incredible inspiration. Personally, I will miss her razor sharp humor and her incredible kindness. The world has lost an absolute icon. Love to Wayne, Ellie, Lacey, and all those touched by this amazing woman!
