With heavy hearts, the staff and board of the Franklin County Visitors Bureau (FCVB) announce the unexpected passing of Kelly Spinner, FCVB Tourism & Sales Associate. Kelly passed on December 31, 2024, of natural causes.
The Visitors Bureau and its staff will miss Kelly deeply and are grateful for her many contributions during nearly ten years working with FCVB. Kelly was a tireless promoter of tourism, a believer in community, and a strong supporter of local business. Prior to working with tourism and the Franklin County Visitors Bureau, Kelly was a radio personality, most recently on WEEO FM/103.7. Blessed with an amazing radio voice, a genuine love of people, and an easy-to-talk-with demeanor—Kelly touched the hearts and minds of so many in her years working with FCVB and on radio from the tristate to Harrisburg PA. Kelly was a valued part of the visitors bureau team. Words do not express how much she will be missed.
The Visitors Bureau sends its deepest condolences to her family and friends. Anyone knowing Kelly can pay it forward by sharing a laugh with someone or by giving their time and talents to a local non-profit organization. Kelly was a tireless supporter of Franklin County non-profits for people and pets.
July is Kelly’s birth month, so a Celebration of Life is planned for July 26, 2025, at the Franklin County 11/30 Visitors Center. Hans Krose, Kelly’s husband of more than thirty years said, “She loved people, and they loved her back.”
Godspeed Kelly Spinner!
