Kelley Annette Grant
Obituary
Kelley Annette Grant was born January 31, 1963 in Lincoln, Nebraska to Charles W. and Charlene (Severe) Bridges. She passed away January 26, 2017 with her family and loved ones at her side. Kelley grew up in Tulsa, Oklahoma and graduated from Thomas Edison High School in 1981. She attended the University of Oklahoma and, shortly after married her high school sweetheart, Bill Grant in 1986. The two lived in Tulsa and expanded their family, welcoming their beloved son, William Peyton Grant in 1993 and their daughter, Kristopher Logan Grant in 1996.
Kelley was a source of light, laughter and joy to all those she encountered. Her fervor for life was evident the moment you met her, as her eyes sparkled with a southern charm that was undeniable and unparalleled. Kelley loved to share her world with others, consistently offering open arms and an open heart. She was a strong animal activist and never met a dog she didn’t love… or take in. Kelley’s entire world was centered around her children, for being a mother was her lifelong dream. Her vibrancy has been passed down to her children, who will carry on all that is, was and will always be, Kelley Annette Grant.
Kelley was preceded in death by her parents and her precious son, Peyton. She is survived by her daughter, Logan and her brother, Brad Bridges.
A memorial service will be held 1:00 p.m. Saturday at First Presbyterian Church. In lieu of flowers, her family asks that donations to be made in Kelley’s memory to the ASPCA at aspca.org/donate
