Mark Kelly Obituary
Mark passed away unexpectedly on June 14, 2010. He was 41 years old. Mark was a loving father, son, & friend. He leaves behind his young son Zak, mother Marguerite Kelly, best friend Lauri Sullivan, along with aunts, uncles & cousins. Mark was born at Good Sam & grew up in Tempe. He attended MCC until he got his first job for Hospice. He loved working with those in need & didn't stray from that when he went on to owning Kelly's towing. Even after death he continued helping others by being an organ donor. Father & son loved just hanging out & sharing a passion for fishing, camping & most anything to do with the great outdoors. Memorial Mass to be Sat 11AM at Our Lady of Mt Carmel 2121 S. Rural, Tempe, AZ. In lieu of flowers, donations to Zak Kelly fund at Wells Fargo, 64 E. Broadway Rd. Ste #100 Tempe, AZ 85282 will be accepted to help provide Zak with the experiences & education Mark wished for him.
