In Loving Memory of Kelly — Supporting Gillian’s Future

On November 1, 2025, our hearts were broken as we said goodbye to Kelly — a devoted mother, fierce advocate, and beautiful soul who bravely battled a debilitating autoimmune disease. Kelly faced her illness with strength, grace, and unwavering love for her daughter, Gillian.

Kelly’s life was defined by her compassion and her mission to make the world a better place for individuals with Autism and special needs. She co-founded ALCA (The Alexander Leigh Center for Autism), a therapeutic day school that continues to change lives by providing children with the support, understanding, and opportunities they deserve. Her legacy lives on through every child who finds hope, growth, and belonging at ALCA.

This fund has been created in Kelly’s memory to support her beloved daughter, Gillian, who has special needs. Gillian was the center of Kelly’s world — her inspiration, her joy, and her reason for everything she did. Donations will go directly toward ensuring Gillian’s continued care, stability, and access to the resources she needs to thrive in the years ahead.

Kelly’s light will forever shine through the love she gave and the lives she touched. We invite you to honor her memory by helping continue the mission she lived for — supporting and empowering Gillian’s future with the same love and dedication Kelly gave every day.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and for keeping Kelly’s legacy alive.
