Kelly Marie Bahl, age 45.
Died peacefully on August 10, 2015.
Loving daughter of Gordon and Joan Bahl.
Dear sister of Kerry (Sean) Doyle, Mary Patricia (Matthew) Simpson, and Erin (Paul) Mersino.
Amazing aunt to Grace, Luke, Morgan, JT, Lila, Colin, Justin and Charlotte.
Kelly was a 1988 graduate of Northville High School and a 1993 graduate of Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Illinois.
Kelly was a tremendous spirit who defied all obstacles. She was an insulin dependent diabetic since the age of 4, beat Stage IV Lymphoma, and was a kidney transplant survivor and amputee. But Kelly never let health problems define her. She dealt with life's difficulties with grace and a smile. Kelly loved winning at Bingo, watching Jeopardy, singing in the choir, and making beautiful works of art. She always sent birthday cards and thank you notes, and never missed a party. A true friend and the most generous of souls. Kelly will be dearly missed.
