Rest in God's loving peace Kelly.
You & Jett are now together again mother and son.
My deepest sympathy go out to your loving family John and your beautiful children.
May God continue to give you all the comfort and peace you need on a daily basis.

Kelly radiated beauty from the inside as well as the outside; and a great love for her husband and children-what a remarkable lady! May her legacy carry on through her family. No time on earth is long enough to share with those we love or to prepare our hearts for goodbye. It's said that the hardest grief is those we are closest to. Her time came too early; cancer takes so many lives it seems. May God put his arms around the Travolta family and give them His love and strength and courage at this time, and let them know He's ALWAYS there for them, and God willing may they all be together again one day. Thoughts and prayers go out to the Travolta family.

Was watching one of my favorite movies last year “View From The Top”. Kelly should have had a bigger role in that movie. She was awesome. She always seemed so genuine. After the movie I went to my IMDB app to see what she had done recently and was devastated to see that she had passed away. I couldn’t believe it. So young and talented. I wish I’d met her. My heart goes out to her husband and children. She truly seemed like a fun, genuinely compassionate person. She’s an Angel in heaven now, with her son Jet. Hang in there John. You’ll be together again someday. My prayers for you & your family are that the peace that passes all understanding strengthen you.

I was so shocked to hear the sad news about beautiful Kelly. I have always liked John since his “Saturday Night Fever” movie. I even had the “Barbarino” poster on my bedroom wall as a teenager! Kelly was just one month older than me so I am very sorry for your loss. So sad. She was so
Pretty.

John, I am so saddened to learn of the loss of your wife. My wife passed on July 14th of this year after fighting the same dread disease for 6 years. Losing the love of my life, my best friend and soulmate has been the most difficult thing I have ever had to endure. I am so sorry you are going through the same pain as me. There are no words. My wife and I would have been married 43 years in August, so you understand the loss of someone with whom you have spent most of your life. I read some of the messages left about Kelly and am astonished how similar they are to those left about my wife. They sound like they would have been kindred spirits, always putting others first and always focusing on family. I pray you find strength and solace through your family, friends and your faith. God bless you and your family. You are in my prayers. May Kelly rest in peace.

I thought she was a great actress. Especially loved her as Jeff Goldbiums girlfriend and Kevin Costner's girlfriend in For the Love of the Game. I'm a year older than her and thought she aged so well. John Travoltas statement after her death was heart wrenching. My thoughts and prayers go out to him and their Family. With Love. Jeff Judd.

she was just such a lovely person and frankly I don't know why this hit me so hard, but she fought such a battle without telling anyone but her family. way to young and my own sister at 74 struggled for a year and thank God she is okay. Just not fair.

I never met Kelly, although I remember her when I went to college in Nelsonville, Ohio where "Mischief" was being made. I remember seeing her from a distance, standing in the middle of the town square, her blonde hair in a ponytail, and everyone buzzing about her. Another memory while I was in the local camera shop, I could hear her talking as she was so excited about the video equipment she would love to buy to to document her friends and family. We later heard that she and Jami Gertz wrote "Hollywood" on the fogged mirrors in their hotel room (of Hocking Hotel ran by the students at the college). It was very exciting for that tiny town.

When I would watch a movie with her in it i always found myself fixated on her presence in the scenes and her acting abilities. She was a very gifted woman in film in interviews and no doubt she was a loving supportive wife and a wonderful mother. R.I.P KELLY. NO MORE PAIN,NO MORE NO MORE WANDERING WHY ME. JUST PEACE.

I would like to express one more sentiment and music is the only way I know. This song provided comfort to me during loss. These words are touching and express the deep feelings of losing a loved one. I'm not on social media, so I hope it's permissible to share here with all who loved Kelly.

Kelly was my childhood best friend in Honolulu, Hawaii. I knew her family very well having grown up on the same street as Nani. Our paths separated when my family moved to the mainland but she was never forgotten. My entire family remembers her to this day and she was thought of so often. The Hunt family sends its deepest sympathies to Kellys entire family, her husband John and her loving children. Our hearts are with you.

She was a beautiful, loving woman with a handsome, talented husband who left this world much to soon. May our Lord bless her family and may their cherish wonderful memories. Although I never met Kelly I did meet her husband, even got a hug from him, while he was in Baltimore shooting a movie as I worked for the BCFD.

When someone touches your heart, who you never met, that person has a quality that is special. I cried hearing the news because this was a tight family. Truly sad and I pray that John and the children are surrounded by Gods love and somehow He lets them know Kelly is with her son and they must go on as she would want them too. I will keep the Travolta family in my prayers. It is those left behind that carry heavy hearts.
