My thoughts and prayers are with all the family. Darnella, My greatest prayer is for you. I know your dad is at peace with no pain or worry.
We did not have the pleasure of meeting Mr. Kelso but his son, Larry, has a special place with our bowling team. Please know that we are thinking of the entire Kelso family during this trying time.
Sincerely,
Matt Gregory

Kelso was my buddy, and dearest friend. It was a friendship of at least 15 years. He would do anything for anyone. He was a great man with a great heart he will truly be missed. I hate that I lost a dear friend. But, I know he is in a better place. RIP
With Love,
EVA Brooks
p.s. I would love for his children to reach out to me 614-392-2543
