GALESBURG - Kelsey Jane (Godsil) Bunker, 29, died June 13, 2020, at her home in Galesburg after fighting an almost decade-long battle with drug addiction.
Kelsey was born March 4, 1991, in Galesburg to John R. and Diane M. Godsil, who survive.
Kelsey attended Danville, Iowa, public schools from first through seventh grades; Galesburg public schools; a private home school; and then obtained her GED.
Kelsey was preceded in death by her paternal grandparents, James H. Godsil and Mary Jane Ferraro Godsil Shane, and also her maternal grandfather, Ira Ramsey of Donnellson, Iowa.
Kelsey married Spencer Bunker on Oct. 14, 2009, in Galesburg. Spencer gave her a loving stepson, Austin Spears-Bunker, and they had two children, Gemma Jade Marie Bunker and Lucas Bryan Bunker, all of whom survive her, currently of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. She and Spencer divorced in 2015. Kelsey later had more children who were eventually adopted and also survive her, Jenna, Jordan and Kensly.
Kelsey is also survived by her maternal grandmother, Donna Ramsey; half-brother "Tony" (John A.) Godsil of Las Vegas; half-brother Jason Godsil and fiancé Stacy Shaner of Kewanee; half-brother Brian Godsil and partner Tiffany Ellison of Galesburg; half-sister Jennifer Godsil and partner Roy Lamb of Galesburg; younger sister Kaitlyn Godsil and fiancé Jarod Cox of Galesburg; an especially close aunt, Denise Ramsey; and numerous other aunts, uncles and cousins.
Kelsey loved the outdoors and all things country. She had sparkling eyes, a beautiful singing voice, and was very creative. She was a Christian and was a very caring and loving person. She deeply loved and missed her children and was depressed and distraught that she was not able to raise them herself. She was a daddy's girl and also had an especially close bond with her Grandma Donna Ramsey.
