Keli Renee Deryck, 42, of Jackson Township, died at 2:11 a.m., Saturday, Dec. 5, 2015 at Hospice of Visiting Nurse Service in Akron, Ohio.

Keli was born Sept. 29, 1973 in Akron, Ohio and was married for 16 years to Brian S. Deryck, Jr., originally of Cuyahoga Falls. She is survived by loving husband, Brian, and three beautiful children, Danielle, Alex and Ashli.

Also surviving are her father Ed (Mary) Daus of Akron, mother, Linda Daus of Cuyahoga Falls, brother Mark (Lisa) of Doylestown, mother-in-law Linda Bedore of Cuyahoga Falls and brother-in-law Steven of Barberton. She leaves behind nieces and nephews Jonathan, Max, Jessica, Rachel and Bailey. She also leaves behind an extended family of aunts, uncles, cousins and friends, namely her close friends Marguerite Alvarado, Amy Kidd and Brooke Phillips.

Keli was a registered nurse at Southwest General Hospital in Middleburg Heights.

Through her example, she taught her children to never give up, love like there's no tomorrow and to make every day count. Her love for her children and Brian was immeasurable, as they would always exchange, "I love you. I love you more. I love you most. I love you taller than God."

A special thank you to caregivers Linda Bedore, Diane Williams and Mary Manes for their gifts of caregiving and patience. A thank you, too, to the friends, family and neighbors who brought countless meals to the family during Keli's fight.

Memorial contributions may be made to Akron General Hospice of Visiting Nurse (3358 Ridgewood Rd., Akron, 44333) in lieu of flowers.

Calling hours will be on Wednesday from 5 to 8 p.m. at the New Apostolic Church of Stow (3541 Elm Rd. behind Dunn-Quigley Funeral Home) where funeral services will take place at 8:00.p.m. Interment will be private.
