I think that I probably speak for many Cole, I think there are many of us that also check and read this often.. I think of it as Kelsey's Carepage but even more special than that, I think of it as our link to Kelsey and "heaven".
Her smile and spirit will somehow carry us through this difficult time.
We love and miss you Kelsey Leigh - How lucky you are to be flying high above with Grammy, Rog and Ruth. We will hold you in our hearts forever and NEVER let you go. We will find in the spring, the flowers and the humming birds. The gentle breeze that blows and the warm sun on our face - we will find you everywhere for you are always with us.
Watch over us Kelsey Leigh.
Love Tricia

To
everyone who still reads this: My name is Cole Lindberg.. I'm
Kelsey's older brother... I often check this page to see if
anyone has left another update.... My thanks goes out to everyone
who has sent their thoughts and prayers... I cannot tell you
just how difficult this path is... Our hearts are so broken..
Our lives turned upside town... Never to be the same again...
Someone told me right after we lost Kelsey, that the life we
had was a highway.. and that highway has been blown into peices..
The peices are to big to pick up and put back together.. So
we are forced to take another route.. A route that most never
have to walk.. A road not paved... A road full of ups and downs..
So we as her family have been forced to take this new road...
How could we do any of this with out all of you??? I'm not sure..
I can only thank you all again for everything you have given
us... The strength we pull from others is amazing... I will
end this by saying, Please dont ever forget Kelsey Leigh Lindberg..
Always remember her.. Keep her spirit alive.. Treat others as
you want to be treated.. Do something nice for a stranger...
Love your family and dont let a day go by without telling them
that you love them.. Find the beauty in a bright sunshine day...
find the peace within yourself to love this life.. You only
get one chance.. But most important... BELIEVE !!! Just BELIEVE....
I love you Baby sista'.... You will forever remain in my heart...
You were and still are my best friend... Watch over all of
us.. Expecially Baby Keira and Grandpa... Dance and sing with
the Angels Kelsey Leigh.. Love to all-
Brother

everyday. and i wont ever forget her.
i really wish i had some pictures of the two of us together

her. and i remember only staying there for five minutes because
her mom was coming home and she wasnt really allowed to have
anyone over\

My little sister Karla was one of Kelsey's best friends. together, Karla, Kels, Rachel and Courtney were and will forever be known as the "fantastic 4". She was practically my little sister, and i miss her so much. Karla and i talk about Kelsey on a daily basis..and we smile remembering all the cute funny things kelsey used to say or do. like how she used to call everything "little". I know i will see Kelsey again some day and that shes in a better place, but it doesnt change the fact that i wish she was still here. love you kels...RIP our angel.!

Kelsey
was a good friend of mine.She left with troubles between us.Some
mornings when I saw her I would think I wish we could forget
what happened between us and go back to the way we were. I regret
what went down between us. I remember all the soccer trips staying
up at night, meeting guys at soccer trips (that was her favorite
thing) our first sleep over, Marz and her mom yelling at us
to go to bed. God I wish we could all turn back the hand of
time and keep her with us for even a split seconed longer. Kelsey
baby I just want you to know I love you and whatever happend
I hope you can forgive me! I love you so much. Watch over EVERYONE
we all need you. I love you so much babe!

Kelsey and I were great friends in Elementary. we actually used to hang out so much that we would literally tell people that we were sisters and they would believe us. When it got to middle school we kinda separated and didnt talk anymore. I dont know why but thats just what happened. I still wonder if I wouldve stayed friends with her, would this of happened. She will be missed.

Kelsey is a cousin of mine. And she will forever be in my heart. I miss her everyday and I know her parents and brothers are dying inside without their beautiful daughter/sister.
Dan, Ann, Kyle and Cole, I love you all so very much and I am here for you always and forever. There isnt a day that passes that I dont think of Kelsey. I am constantly praying to God for her. I'll never let her memory fade!
I love you guys!

I have a young lady who works for me and has written a poem
in memory to Kels. She was so touched by her beautiful picture,
which sits on my desk and so sad for your loss. Tinky gave
me the idea to post it here. Thanks Tink
;
"FOREVER BEAUTY"
As
I looked upon your picture, I saw God's beauty and perfection
first hand. Beneath was a poem you had written for those left
behind, it made me wonder if you somehow knew the Angels were
in demand.
I never had the pleasure of knowing you myself, though I've
seen your smile through the tears of those who loved you,
and in this picture, through their pain, shinning brightly
is your "Forever Beauty", that even I see too.
A loss to those who knew and loved you always and also to
those who missed the chance, for now it is among the angels
in heaven with whom you dance.
You
are remembered for all you wished to be and so much more,
their souls have not found peace, though now the pain of this
life has passed you by, enabling you to soar.
Here on earth we see just tiny fragments of this big picture.
Though God sees it's entirety. As we are broken for what stands
before our narrow sight, it's sometimes merely his way of
sharing with us, his inner light.
I hope and pray that they'll soon see, that God was merely
in need of your presence to make complete a certain peice
of his purpose. There is always more to find than that which
lies beneath this torn and tattered surface.
What you've taken with you is not entirely known, but you've
left behind a "Forever Beauty" that is clearly shown.
Written

KELSEY LEIGH LINDBERG I thought this was beautiful and wanted
to share this with you, Ann. I love you, ANNIE WEASE .

It's
really hard to think about the fact that she isn't coming back,
and that I will never get the chance to finish memories and
conversations that were meant to be finished. You think you
have all the time in the world..I can't even imagine what the
family and close friends are going through and I am so very
sorry for your loss. I can't express that enough. I am happy
that I was given the chance to know her and be friends with
her. May she rest in peace.

I
was touched by the tribute from Martha. She is obviously someone
who live near St. Peter's and had the opportunity to watch the
hundreds of us who went to pay our respects of Kelsey and her
family. I was so moved and comforted by her remark about God
adding a beautiful flower to his garden. Indeed he did, because
Kelsey is a beautiful young lady and he must have a very special
reason for taking her from us. I am confident that he has her
close by his side and she is in a wonderful place. We will miss
Kelsey and our prayers and thoughts are with Ann and Dan. Thank
you for sharing your daughter with us and for giving all of
us present at her service the words you spoke about her. I admire
your strength.

I
remember Kelsey as a plucky, beautiful fifth grade girl who
liked to stop in at the Silver Creek School library to chat
and sometimes tease me a little. My heart goes out to her loving
parents, brothers and other family members, as well as the many
friends who loved her so.

I
played soccer with Kelsey last year and saw her this year when
I helped out at practices. She had to be one of the nicest people
I have ever met. She would always say hello to me and chat whenever
I saw her around town and she would always have a big smile
on her face. I offer my deepest sympathies for what has happened
but she now resides in a better place than we can imagine with
the Lord and her memory will live on in our hearts.

Our prayers go out to all of Kelsey's extended family. To lose someone so young is a real heartache. She was a joy to know and will be missed by everyone. Our daughter Alyssa played Soccer with Kelsey and she was loved by a great group of young ladies. Kelsey will always be in their hearts and never forgotten by the Class of 2009...She will be remembered with joy by all the students whose lives she touched with friendship and warmth. Love to you all Anne, Tony and Alyssa Erspamer.

It doesn't seem too long ago that Kelsey and I were jumping over chairs. And I will never forget having to walk her home, and finding out she had broken her wrist at my house. We always loved to race, and she'd never let me forget the time she had beaten me. I would never admit it, and she would never let it go. She'll always be my neighborhood buddy :) She will be missed terribly, but never be forgotten

My daughter, Callan, frequently had sleep-overs with Kelsey in middle school and I would like to say what a pleasure she was to have in our home. She was a well mannered young girl who had one of the greatest smiles. I got the sense she truely loved her family as indicated in the obituary. My heart goes out to her parents and all of her family and friends. She will be greatly missed.
My most recent and strongest memory was the morning after a sleepover and I was trying to get her to eat something for breakfast. I was trying to push at least a glass of juice and a banana or granola bar on her before Ann picked her up to take her to track practice. She typically had a healthy appetite... just not that day. I worried she wouldn't have the strength to run but she made it through. She endured. Now her memories will endure in all of the hearts who loved and admired her. There is much to admire given her acomplishments.

I
don't know you, I didn't know Kelsey. But by the time I read
her obituary and saw her beautiful face I was in tears wanting
to express my deepest sympathy. I can't possibly imagine the
sorrow and pain in your hearts at this time. As I sit here in
my home today, watching young people walk by on their way to
St. Peters Cathedral to say a last goodbye to their friend,
my heart aches for them and for you, her family. What can anyone
say, except God Bless you and may he help you to cope. Please
know that at least one stranger [probably many many more] are
feeling terribly sorrowful for your loss. God's garden has gain
a beautiful flower. He must have needed her for something very,
very important. Sending you all loving thoughts and energy.

In every memory I have of Kelsey I see her beautiful, smiling face. I wish I could have come home to say good-bye to Kelsey and to be there for you Ann, Dan, Kyle and Cole. Please know that you are in my heart and I love you all.

Years ago Kelsey spent many hours at our house playing with Brittnee,Breanne and most of the neiborhood kids. As the sun went down,after a hard days play,one of her big brothers,Cole or Kyle would escort their little sister home safely. She was always polite and a joy to have around. Kelsey's great personality was a reflection of Dan and Ann. AS I close this note my heart is filled with good memories of her. I'll never forget her big beautiful eyes and great smile.

I
babysat Kelsey and 2 of her brothers a couple of times when
she was probably about 4. I remember her pretty brown eyes and
she had curly sandy blonde hair. She was just the cutest little
thing. I haven't seen her since then but I can see she still
has that cute little face and beautiful smile.I am so sorry
to hear about her passing away. My thoughts and prayers are
with your family at this time!!!!
