Obituary
Age 50, passed away at Bronson Hospital from the result of a severe asthma attack; she was surrounded by loved ones. Kelly was born in Kalamazoo on November 7, 1974, the daughter of Michael Wyant, Jr. and Betty Bragagnini. The only daughter of four children, Kelly was passionate, strong-willed with a great sense of humor and beautiful smile. She graduated from Hackett Catholic Central High School Class of 1992, where she made many friends and enjoyed playing multiple sports. Kelly had a heart made for loving and helping others which would lead to a career in nursing. She was a valuable member of the Bronson Hospital team; the care and comfort she provided for her patients will be missed. When not working she loved sunbathing and spending time at the beach. She found peace and a faithful connection with the Lord as she listened to the waves, felt the sand between her toes and watched the sunset. She enjoyed spending time with friends and playing cards. She also loved spending time with her loyal dog “Buddy”. Nothing was more important to Kelly than those she loved. She shared a close relationship with her long-time companion Jeff Schreuder with whom she made many special memories. She had a close bond with her mother. They shared much of life’s journey together and during these past years Kelly made it a priority to care for her. She loved her brothers; they were forever in her heart and mind. She was a supportive aunt to her nephews, Jordan and Dylan and enjoyed attending their sporting events and other life achievements. Above all things, she was a loving mother to her only daughter Morgan. Morgan was the light of Kelly’s life and a true reflection of her hope and joy. Kelly’s smile, laughter, quick wit and strong mind will be missed by all who loved her. Though gone too soon from our lives, she will forever be honored and remembered by those nearest to her. Kelly leaves to cherish her memory her daughter, Morgan Wyant; mother, Betty Wyant-Stora; brothers, Michael, Todd and Chris (Heather) Wyant; significant other, Jeff Schreuder; nephews, Jordan Verburg and Dylan Wyant; aunts, uncles, cousins, extended family and friends. She was preceded in passing by her father Michael Wyant, Jr. and stepfather, John Stora.

I’m so sad to hear about Kelly and her sudden passing. I’m sorry for the loss for her family and loved ones. She was definitely one of a kind person and a beautiful soul as well. She will surely be missed. My heart is hurting. Fly high beautiful and watch us all, as your now God’s beautiful Heavenly Angel and you will be deeply missed. 😪
Our deepest sympathy to Betty and the family. Kelly and the family are in our prayers. May she rest in peace.
Michael my prayers go out to you and your family. I didn’t know your sister but I do know what it’s like to lose one. I wish nobody that feeling. She was beautiful and extremely well liked and gifted, much like her brother by reading her obituary. Remember to talk to her for she can hear you. You are always in my thoughts and prayers.
