Declan Graham Kelsch

2018 ~ 2018

On Saturday, May 12, 2018, we welcomed our son Declan Graham Kelsch into this world. He was born at 37 weeks. His little body was perfect, weighing 7 pounds, and was 21 inches long. Though his spirit had already risen past the confines of the flesh, he was greeted with arms of love, surrounded by countless numbers of people who eagerly awaited his arrival. Declan's story began months ago as a tiny body housing a beautiful soul, and though his body will not remain with us, his soul's story has just begun.

Little Declan is our rainbow baby, and now our second angel to take flight. His love has touched, shaped, and molded not only our family but a myriad of others. His life, though short, has left its mark on the world, a mark that will continue to ripple and grow. Declan is a miracle and our child that we will always adore.

Declan has rejoined his older brother Logan Riley, and is survived by his father Kelly, his mother Dawn, and two brothers Kelly Michael and Landon Alexander. He and his family are surrounded by innumerable friends and family, all of whom cherish the moments they spent with him during his time on this earth.

There will be a viewing for Declan on Saturday, May 19th at 11:00 a.m. at Larkin Mortuary Riverton on 3688 West 12600 South, Riverton, UT. Following the viewing a graveside service will be held at 1:00 p.m. at Elysian Burial Gardens 1075 East 4580 South.
