Kelly Sue Petersen-Rasmussen, age 61, of Greenville, passed away peacefully and surrounded by family on August 5, 2023 at Corewell Health - Blodgett Hospital in East Grand Rapids. The daughter of James Gayle & Alice May (Soss) Petersen, she was born on March 20, 1962 Greenville.
Kelly was a 1980 graduate of Greenville High School, worked at Gay's Cleaners, and later retired after 19 years at Litehouse Foods in Lowell. Her family was proud of her recent accomplishment of completing her CNA licensure. A truly giving woman, she gave the ultimate gift of vision as a cornea donor in her death.

Surviving are her mother, Alice McMeeken; a sister, Tracy & Bob Gilbert; a niece and nephew, Chris & Angie Gilbert, Josh & Jama Ingersoll; three great-nieces and nephews, Gwen, Sully, and Jameson; and we can't forget her loving fur-babies and loyal companions, Grayson, Anna, and Dora.
