Kelli Jo (Norton) Day

Kelli Jo (Norton) Day, 47, longtime Mooresville resident, passed away after a lengthy hospital stay on January 20, 2026.  Kelli was born on February 4, 1978, in Indianapolis, to Dennis and Connie (Harris) Norton.  In addition to her parents, Kelli is survived by her husband, Todd Day.

Kelli graduated from Mooresville High School in 1996.  While raising her children, she pursued her nursing degree from the IU School of Nursing, graduating in 2013.  Kelli was employed by Dermatology Incorporated at IU West Hospital and more recently as a registered nurse at Franciscan Hospital.  Kelli’s intelligence, drive, and determination were all instrumental in her successful completion of her nursing education and subsequent successful career.

In her free time, Kelli loved the outdoors (except for spiders) and always looked forward to mushroom hunting every season with Todd.  She enjoyed crafts, especially creating pottery items.  She was an avid IU basketball fan, and like many others, was very proud of the Hoosiers football season this year.  Her favorite NFL team was the New Orleans Saints.   Kelli loved to cook for family and friends, and pulled pork was her specialty.  Above all, Kelli was strongly devoted to her family.  She loved to spend time with her children and grandchildren.  Kelli will be fondly remembered for her outgoing personality and her strong desire to help those in need.

Kelli was preceded in death by a stepson, Tyler Day.
