The family she leaves to cherish her memory include her son, Bobby Kelly (Shelia), of Oxford,  two sisters, Wynell Ladd and Betty Sanders, both of Batesville, six grandchildren, Nick Warren (Shelli), Amanda Pittman (Ronnie), Dustin Kelly, Brittney Warren, Kristi Yancey (Derrick), and Kevin Ray, and sixteen great-grandchildren.
