Lorri Kelley

Our dear mother Lorri Kelley, 59, of Syracuse, passed away on February 16th from long term illness.

My mother was dipped in magic from head to toe. She loved thunderstorms, and moonlight. She was a wild child through and through, and was always looking for the adventures in life. She was the strongest woman I ever knew; she could move mountains for her children. A real-life superwoman, she fought for as long as she could to stay with the ones she loved. She will be missed terribly but remembered and honored forever.

She was predeceased by her husband and soulmate Gerald Kelley, Mother Joanne Burman, sister Patrice Ackerman.

She leaves behind her daughter Brittney Kelley (Brad Coulter), son Reese Kelley, Father Joseph Piotrowski, sister Heidi Buckman (Jeff).

"The sight of birds upon the wing, lifts the soul and makes it sing."
