Kelli Crawford is a lifetime resident of our mountain community. She has been one of the hardest working real estate agents in the foothills for years but had to step back when diagnosed with a rare disease. Against all odds, and to the dismay of the doctors she survived and recovered to return to a slow residential real estate market.

As any of you who know Kelli know, she is a hardworking industrious woman and continued to work hard and resourcefully providing for her family despite the downturn in her lifelong career in real estate and the hardship of a life threatening illness.

Most recently and unfortunately, Kelli was a victim of domestic violence and was severely beaten. She was able to escape the near-death incident but is left with a difficult financial predicament. Her attacker took all of her savings and earnings. Kelli has pressed charges and will be prosecuting her attacker to the fullest extent of the law.

Currently, she is unable to work while she heals from her injuries. Due to the circumstances, she is falling behind on her mortgage and has her children to take care of, I was hoping our little mountain community could show some love and support to one of our own going into the holiday season.
