Keeshia Kay Kelley

Keeshia Kay Kelley, age 29, of Battle Creek, left her earthly home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, January 30, 2019.

Keeshia is survived by her mother, Kathy Kay Kelley; her brothers, Conrad "CJ" Burton and Kevin "Josh" Kelley; a niece, Sophie Burton; her uncles, Rocky and Matt Kelley; her grandmother, Lois Hillaker of Ocklawaha, FL; and her fur babies, Lilly and Gadget, and darling pig, Darla. She is also survived by her father, Constantine Austin; her aunts, Catina & Carlotta Austin, and a host of cousins. She was preceded in death by her father figures, Dave Rosenbrook and Tommy Hayes.

Keeshia was a fun-loving woman that could put a smile on anyone's face, joy in anyone's heart, and peace to any situation. Her laughter was contagious and her smile could light up any room. Keeshia volunteered for St. Jude Children's Hospital and for the Marian E. Burch Adult Day Care.

A memorial gathering to celebrate Keeshia's amazing life and first birthday in heaven will be held 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 13, 2019 at the Eagles Aerie #299, 19757 Capital Ave. NE, Battle Creek. The family is being served by Farley Estes Dowdle Funeral Home & Cremation Care, Battle Creek.
