I'm still having a hard time processing this. Kelly's friendship meant the world to me, I haven't been in contact with him for a couple of years but I thought of him often. He always knew how to make a person feel like they were the most important person in the room. You can tell the measure of a man by his family, and Kelly raised a great couple of boys who turned out to be fine young men. His relationship with Tracy was an excellent example of exes getting along and working together for their family. He always worked as hard as he could to make a good life for them. He had an infectious laugh and a amazing sense of humor. He was a fierce protector of his sister, and a best friend to his brother. I loved witnessing the relationship he had with Brother Timmy. Sue and Richard, I'm sorry for your heartache. I'm feeling it too. I loved Kelly, as did a lot of people. We have a lifetime of memories to hold onto, and each other to lean on when the loss feels overwhelming. Peace and love to the whole family. God bless his memory.

My heart is aching for your loss. The obituary was perfect as I always thought Kelly was the kindest, most friendly young man I knew. No matter where we were, he always had time to visit, share a story, make me laugh and just be a sweet young man. He was very special to me and I am thankful that I told him this whenever I saw him. He touched many lives in his short time with us and he will be deeply missed. Please know our thoughts, prayers, love and hugs are with you!! God bless Kelly's memory.
