That's a hard one, and I can't think of an individual reading.

Rather than just mentioning Kelly, why not write something out along the lines of a family tree from Great Grandparents forwards, mentioning all those who have gone before in both families, living or dead, who are joined together by the marriage. You could mention them by name, by their position in the family, and a word or two about their nature or personality.

That way, Kelly gets a mention but without making things too sad.
