Rest in PEACE jAMES.

I just learned of his passing and extend my sympathies and sincere condolences to the Kelly family.

rest in peace Jim, I remember you well on visits to Donegal.

I remember Jim as one who loved life and had a magnanimous personality and more importantly, he was without a doubt a phenomenal family man. One memory that will always be very special to me about Jim, was how he took the time and interest in us kids on the block and of course - sharing his wisdom. Jim, you are in my prayers today and Rest in Peace - Friend!!! Mark

Mr Kelly ruled the block of Arabella- I can here him now calling for Kevin to come home- his echo roared the block for his kids- taking us to school each morning he would give us math quiz all the way to school- 7 x8 12 x12 and so on- he was a teacher to us and a great man- I can remember him clearly to this day and his nice laugh- seeing him a los alamitos race track he loved the horses- always a big smile on his face- going to miss you Jim- Bobby Austin
