Kayleigh's Asteroid

Kayleigh's Grandpa is a amateur astronomer, who through the course of the years has discovered several small asteroids. The discoverer of asteroids gets naming rights of the asteroid after it has been conformed as a new discovery. After Kayleighs death, her Grandpa decided to name one of the asteroids he discovered after her - 202614. We chose that one because the asteroid number had a '14' in it - the date Kayleigh was born. So every time I look into the night sky, I say a silent hello to my girl.
