Barbara Kelly Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Barbara was born on December 11, 1943 to Howard and Ethel Rogers in Lakewood, Ohio. As a young woman, Barb would go on to meet the love of her life and future husband, Timothy Kelly, while at a night club with friends. They would marry in 1966 at St. James Catholic Church in Lakewood, Ohio. Together they raised three children: Timothy Jr., Christin, and Caitlin. Barb was an amazing mother to her children, and was so overjoyed to become a grandmother with the births of Ashley and Amber. She loved to garden, and enjoyed flowers of all types (especially her newest favorite, the moss rose). Although Barb did not enjoy cooking, she did love to watch the cooking channel and watching her TV shows. Barb's faith was extremely important to her, and she and her husband are long time members at the St. Isidore Catholic Church. Barb will be forever remembered by all who loved her.
Beloved wife of Timothy Peter Kelly Sr.; cherished mother of Timothy Kelly Jr., Christin Kelly, and Caitlin Kelly; proud grandmother of Ashley and Amber; loved sister of Janet Rodeback, and Nancy (Earl) Shelton; dearest sister in law of Jean Rogers, Patrick (LaVonne) Kelly, Sheila Grattan, Daniel Kelly, and Thomas (Peggy) Kelly.
Barb was preceded in passing by her dear parents Howard, and Ethel Rogers; brother Charles; and brother in law Harold Rodeback.
