Kelsey Renee' Harris

Kelsey Renee’ Harris, 28, of Franklin, passed away on Sunday, July 24, 2022 after a sudden and tragic accident at her home along with her beloved dog, Molly.

Born in Franklin on February 18, 1994 she was the daughter of Brian Harris and Tammi Griffen.

She was a 2012 graduate of Franklin High School.

Kelsey was a truly kind and loving girl who found beauty in all things and people. She enjoyed spending as much time as possible with her niece and nephew, Eleanor and Oliver. Above all things, Kelsey loved being an “Auntie” to Oliver and Eleanor and a step-mother to Roman. There was nothing she loved more than being with the kids.

Kelsey had so much love in her heart, no one ever felt alone when she was around. Kelsey enjoyed all things, from crafting to nature to family. Her family was very important to her. She was a proud vegetarian and animal lover. She adored her dog Molly so very much and shared that love with her cat, Hades whom she bottle fed to better health.

Kelsey could turn anything into art. Her laugh was the kind that made your heart happy. She was a beautiful person who will be loved and greatly missed by so many.
