Kelly L. Crisci

Our beloved mother, Kelly Lynn Crisci, suddenly on September 12, 2020 gained her angel wings and joined her loved ones beyond those pearly gates in heaven to watch over us and wait for all those she loved to meet her there. Kelly was born to a loving mother, Marilyn Maxwell and her father, Philip King on March 15, 1964 in Hartford City, Indiana. She lived in Indiana for many years before deciding she was ready for the sun and the sand with her momma and dad, Zina “Mack” Maxwell on Anna Maria Island in Bradenton, FL. While living on the island she attended Bayshore Highschool and made many friends. There she also met, married, and began her family with James Tyler Daniel. During the marriage, she became a loving step mother to 3 beautiful girls Angela, Eileen, and Shannon and had one beach baby of her own, James Daniel, before moving to northern Florida. In northern Florida, she gave birth to two beautiful daughters, Jessica Marie Bruce and Leah Kay Daniel. Later in life, with her flower child like love for the world, she met Thomas Crisci and moved to a little town in up state New York called Monroe. There she married Tom and became an in home daycare center where she spent her time caring for other people’s children just as she cared for her own. She touched the lives of all the young children living in the neighborhood and became great figure in their lives.

She managed a local convenience store, Manatee Jiffy, for many years before becoming disabled. Kelly had a love for life and for every person she met.
