Cori Kelsey Obituary (1988 - 2016)

Cori Jones Kelsey, born on February 12, 1988, passed away peacefully in the early morning hours on November 8, 2016 while surrounded by his family and loved ones. Cori had his struggles in this life but he was able to return to our Heavenly Father valiantly as he had been triumphantly working towards conquering his battles. Cori enjoyed many activities including fishing, hunting, camping, and having a family BBQ at the house while he and his brothers played out in the yard. The activity he enjoyed the most was spending time with his Mom and Dad on Sunday afternoons and Monday nights watching the NFL games cheering on his favorite team, the Green Bay Packers. Cori always had fun hanging out with his Aunts and Uncles and playing with his many cousins whenever a chance came up for the family to get together. His fun personality and contagious laugh brightened many lives of family and friends. He will be missed greatly, however we know that he accomplished his earthly mission and is now able to achieve the calling he was given in heaven. Cori is preceded in death by his brother Mark Chase Kelsey and his grandmother Georgia Stapley Jones.
