“Remembering My Friend Kelly Uzzetta”
Happy Birthday “Kelly”
Happy Birthday to another dear friend, Kelly Uzzetta. Have a lot of friends who are having a birthday all around this time of the year!
Kelly was looking for a new home when I first met her. I was a real estate agent at the time and we spent a couple of weeks looking for a nice property… something with some land and lots of room for their seven (7) children. We found just the right property and her family moved in, and we had struck up such a good friendship, which was fun for both of us, and our families.
Over the years her children grew up and I was invited to birthdays and then to weddings and to children being born, making “Kelly” a “Grandma!”
Also, Mr. Uzzetta was in the construction business and I was in need of having a new “bay window” being installed in my house. Mr. Uzzetta and his son were able to complete this job, perfectly. There were several other jobs we needed and Mr.Uzzetta was able to do these as well and at reasonable rates.
There were times when we had the Uzzettas come over for dinner and we were also to their home just as many or more times. It was just one of those times when you just click into a good friendship, and not knowing what the future has in store … and we did enjoyed so many good years associating!
The time for an unforeseen accident … though is something that we just could not comprehend. Kelly had just come home from work and had dinner with her family, and was going to enjoy a short time watching Television, when without any warning and no way to know… just what would be happening in just a very few minutes that evening?
Coming down the highway… a driver “drunk” and having been arrested so many times and still having possession of a driver’s license… crossed over the highway… up and over another road-way and right into “Kelly’s” living room front window and “Kelly was right there suiting, on the sofa… so unaware this was her last day… here on Earth!
Instantly, she was killed. The living room and front entrance to the house, all damaged beyond belief. How could this have happened? The drunk- driver came right between two (2) very large trees – and he, without a scratch. What a night-mare for my very good friend, Kelly and her family.
Her funeral followed in a few days. Such a good life… killed by a drunk-driver, who should have been without a license to drive… while he still had to drink???
Kelly… You may not be here on earth, right now… as you are in a for greater place and that is being in Heaven…
I will never ever be able to forget you… as we always had so many nice times celebrating with our Family extra special occasions… as they came up on the calendar … I still remember so well… some of the places we would go with our husbands… all so many terrific good memories…You were and always will be, a most “terrific friend… to me… to remember!”
