Kelley attended Maple Leaf Elementary, Chief Peguis Junior High, River East Collegiate, and completed her Business Administration degree from Red River Community College. Kelley went on to work for Manitoba Finance within the Taxation Division where she very much enjoyed her workplace. Kelley was a strong and accomplished individual who lived a full and rewarding life despite her physical limitations. Her determination and ability to overcome significant obstacles to lead a life of independence was nothing short of inspiring.
