On February 19th, 2020, Kelly was routinely delivering mail along her route on Van Wickle Rd. when she smelled smoke that did not seem typical of a fireplace fire. She noticed smoke coming from the windows of 35 Van Wickle. Knowing that the grandparents at that address visit from another country, Kelly began to bang on the door to alert anyone inside and she called 911. The house was empty at the time and because of Kelly's above and beyond efforts, the house was saved from total destruction.
