Kelley Jo Robinson


Kelley Jo Robinson passed away last Saturday after a year-long battle with cancer. I had the privilege of photographing her with her children & husband last fall, between chemo treatments. I attended her funeral yesterday. It was hard to watch her little girl, Emma, cling to Kelley's sister during the funeral. It was hard to listen to Kelley's family mourn her passing. But it was beautiful to hear their testimonies. They know where Kelley is and are coping with this loss with the comfort of the Holy Ghost. A question Rance and I came away pondering was brought up at the funeral: What would you do if you had a year left to live? Rance and I both agreed that we would spend as much time with our immediate family and our extended family as we could. So, we are just going to do that anyway. Thank you, Kelley.
