Erica (aka Biggie and Aunt Gaga) was a bright light in the lives of those who loved her. She was the family prankster and was quick to make a joke, even at herself. There was never a dull moment with Erica. She was also kind and made sure those around her were taken care of. Erica loved her family, especially her nieces and nephews who she referred to as her babies. She found enjoyment in camping, babysitting, shopping and food. She was also fond of old movies and the I love Lucy tv show.

Left to cherish Erica's memory are her mother and stepfather, Lisa and Mark Kiessling; her siblings, Amy, wife of Steven, Bryan, and Robert, husband of Steph; her aunt Antoinette Kelly wife of(Late Harris Smith), Uncle; Robert L. Kelly; her nieces, and nephews Alessandra, Olivianna, Antonio, Dante, Ryan, Liam, and Noland. Along with her father, Erica is preceded in her passing by her cousin Brandon Kelly and grandparents Elizabeth and Louis Kelly.

Services will be held at the convenience of the family.
