Belva Jean Cairelli

Belva Jean (Robinette) Cairelli “Belvie,” age 72, of Columbus, Ohio went home to Jesus unexpectedly on March 11, 2025.

She is the daughter to the late Arville Robinette and Delores (Finley) Robinette, sister to the late Opal (Robinette) Marcum, and sister to Darlene, Arville, Mike, Shirley and Wayne all who survive her.

She is survived by her beloved children: Abraham Jefferson “Jeff” (Vanessa) Lilley, Allen Thomas Lilley, Tina Marie Lilley, and Shaneika Jeanette Cairelli; her precious grandchildren: Taylor, Jasmine, Darrian, Max, Justin, Davian, Anthony, Katie, Cole, Noah; her treasured great-grandchildren: Stella, Jaxon, Ellie, Breanna, Monsere, Ziah'ir, Luna, Violet Rose, as well as many nieces, nephews and friends.

She was a passionate researcher and writer in search of the truth, a loving mother and grandmother, friend and confidant.

In her time with us, she created and touched so many lives, and we are all the better for it. She is so deeply missed.

There will be a Celebration of Life event at a later date.
