    RIP Kelly Love

    A maggot (or maggot-to-be, let's not get technical here) was lost last night.

    I don't know how many of you met my friend Kelly Love (the girl I was debating bringing or not) at the summit, but I don't think I have ever known a nicer person. She had serious heart in everything she did, including skiing, and was probably on her way to make it big on the LPGA. She had so much going for her and she was such an awesome person, but my friend Kelly Love was killed in a car crash last night. I wanted to dedicate a memorandum on here to the skiing side of Kelly. She was going to come visit me in Boulder and ski her buns off! But now that she can't do that in body, she may very well be doing it in spirit next winter. This may not mean much to you guys, but I would appreciate some good thoughts and maybe dedicating a run to the most ambitious golfer, skier, drummer, and benevolent person in Louisiana.


    Kelly Love, the coolest girl I know. Feb. 14, 1987-April 15, 2005. We'll miss you infinitely.

    May all your shots go straight up there in the clouds, and may every turn you make be bottomless.

    Nice tribute. I'm sure she's smiling down on you as she reads this from the afterlife. Hang tough.

    Damn. Always sad to lose a friend, and so young.

    Sounds like you really care for her Max. Keep your head up and remember that she's watching down on you.

    I sold a Tolkien bedcloth to Kelly O´Conner in Florida for 80 $ ( it´s my business - selling Tolkien items ).Now we mailed it and put 5 dedications in and it did not arrive there she claims and contacted ebay - that was yesterday ! I think we are not obliged to send it again as she did not want insurance - I wanted to send her one free , but my ma does not agree.
    I hope it is chance.

    In his own way he was giving his Karmic blessing to Kelly.

    That OBernhardFranz confuses the dearly departed Kelly Love with a Tolkein buying Kelly O'Connor is of little significance.
    It is the blessing that is important.


    Peace to Kelly Love.
    She is truly a Lamb of God.
