Richard W. Kelley

Richard W. Kelley quietly and peacefully slipped the bonds of earth on Tuesday, April 5, 2022, age 81.  He will be greatly missed after 57 years of marriage by his wife Holle.  Loving father of Patrick.  Proud grandfather of Larz.  Further loved by many relatives and friends.

He was known for his smiles, humor and willingness to lend a hand or tool whenever needed.  In his own quiet ways, he inspired, supported, and looked at life as a joy to behold.

Among his interests he managed women’s shoe store for 30 years, taught hunter safety for the DNR for 30 years, and drove a school bus during retirement.

He enjoyed his service in the Navy and travels throughout the world with his wife. Watching his grandson, Larz, become a worthy adult gave him great pleasure.
