Kelly Lynn Hatch

Kelly was an amazing human, mom and friend.We shared so many memories together. It’s been such a privilege to call you my “friend” I will forever miss all the giggles and stories. I miss you so much already.

My thoughts are with Kelly's family - especially her children who she was so proud of. I was lucky to have worked with Kelly at UW-Whitewater. She was brilliant, funny, strong, thoughtful and had the best laugh! She will be missed - she lives on in her children and in the many teachers she prepared. I will keep her in my thoughts always - the world is a better place because she was here.

Kelly was the most positive and supportive people one could ever ask for. Kelly always had a smile on her face and always managed to also put a smile on your face. The moments I had with Kelly are some of the moments that I will always cherish in life. Nellie is also one of the strongest individuals I have ever meet and I can’t even imagine her grief. She has handled this unbelievably and I’m so proud of her for that. May you rest in peace kelly.❤️🕊️

I am so sorry to hear about Kelly’s passing. She was one of my favorite teachers in high school. She was spunky and made English fun and was always very kind. My condolences to her children and the rest of her family.

Shocked by this heavy news. I'm grateful to have known her at least for a short while as her piano teacher. She was fun! I always enjoyed our lesson time together. And, among so many other things, she could even play classical piano too! My heart is heavy for her amazing children, Robby and Nellie. Life can be unbearable. You will make it through this as you have the same lion heart that she does.
