Brandon Harris is organizing a city wide motorcycle ride to benefit Kelsey's family. The requested donation is $20.00 dollars per bike, passenger or not. The ride will start from the Target she was taken from, then it will be two laps around the 435 loop - one time to honor the memory of Kelsey and the other to show support for the family. All donations will be given to the family to use as they see fit. Brandon's goal is 100+ bikes and enough to cover the funeral expenses.
Meet at:
Target (97th and Quivira) parking lot
Sunday, June 10, at 5:00 pm

I am so sorry for your family's loss and great sorrow at this time. My prayers go up for you and those immediately affected by Kelsey's death.

Is there anyway from someone to donate if they cannot make the bike run .?
Where can we make a donation to the family?
I'm so sorry for your loss. It is so very sad. I hope you find comfort in these messages. I live in Des Moines, Iowa and have my guard up all the time, Kelsey is proof it can happen anywhere. If I leave the store by myself, I'm aware of everyone else in the parking lot, I make sure there are lots of people around. I have my keys out ready to attack back. To those women out there reading these messages. Don't let this happen again, always be aware of your surroundings. Fight, scream, yell, scratch, and kick if someone is trying to take or harm you. Don't be afraid to make a scene in public, you may save your life. I challenge everyone, if you see something suspicious, step in and help, you might save a life. Restore faith in human kindness.
Dear Smith family and friends,
My prayers are with you and your family. I will be at the vigil for Kelsey in my heart as I live far away. I pray GOD will give all of you strength now and in the days to come.
My heart is touch by all the ways people are remembering Kelsey, and hundreds of posts made by complete strangers and friends who's hearts go out to this family. It is so selfless, so thoughtfull. It proves just how much love is still in this world, even though such hatred took her away.
I pray that the person that has been arrested is indeed the person who did this horrific act, and that his sentence is anything but light. It is true that our Lord with the the final judge in this matter, but I can not help but feel relief that he will not get away with doing this. And may this be a message to all individuals who think they can harm others with no consequence.
Kelsey, be in peace. I wish peace to her family, boyfriend, and friends. You will all see her again someday. We will never forget her.

The family and all those who loved Kelsey are in my thoughts. I am so very sorry you are having to go through this. Losing a child is the worst thing imaginable; I know this because my son Hayden was suddenly and tragically killed nearly 2 years ago.
Your daughter was obviously a beautiful and vibrant person that loved and was loved by many. All of you are in my prayers today.
To Kelsey's family and friends,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I live in Oregon and followed this story, all the while hoping and praying for a different outcome. If we lived closer, we would definately be on that motorcycle ride.
I hope you find peace knowing that you will all be reunited with Kelsey someday. I also pray that justice is served.

I am very sorry for your loss. I live in Olathe and I go to Oak Park Mall quite a lot. I'm only 16 and it has made me realize that I should always be cautious even when I am in my car. Your family will be in my prayers.
I am so sorry. I do not what it is like to have someone in your family be kidnapped. But I know it must be devastating. When i saw the news, her sister said "I have a feeling that she is still alive" and I believed her. But even though she isn't with you anymore, doesn't mean her spirit isn't alive. So tonight, everyone pray hard. And Hope that the family will get through this. When I heard that they found her body, I couldnt believe it! I thought that I heard wrong. So I searched and searched. I found this to be true. I was horribly sad.And if you get kidnapped. The best thing to do is run. Even if he says he will hurt you, don't get into the car no matter what. But even if you get in, All you need is faith. Thats what everybody needs.. is just faith that things will get better, because they will. &I bet kelsey is much happier now.
I can not imagen the lost of a child... Our prays and thoughts are with you in this time of need.
