Brandon Kelso, son of The Dove Brother’s pianist Jerry Kelso, was killed this morning in a motorcycle accident in Lexington, Kentucky.
The 22-year-old was riding his motorcycle when, according to a report at MSNBC, the driver of a Jeep Cherokee pulled out in front of him; Kelso slammed into the side of the SUV and was thrown to the pavement. The driver of the SUV was not charged. According to a press release, wet road conditions may have contributed to the accident.
Kelso had recently moved to Kentucky from his hometown of Asheville, NC.
“Our deepest sympathies are with Jerry and his family,” says McCray Dove of the Dove Brothers. “Jerry is family to us. We know that Jerry and his family appreciate your prayers and thoughts during this time of grieving.”
Please keep the Kelso family in your prayers at this time. You can send cards to:
