When Irish eyes are smiling, there's Irish coffee, Irish soda bread, and Irish Bob Kelley. He brought brightness to a room and joy to the world. He will be greatly missed. Mort and Janet Elenbogen, fond friends

It is very sad to hear of your loss. Our thoughts, prayers and blessing are with each and every member of the Kelley family. We all have such fond memories, of cousin Bob. He always shared so much especially the many stories of the Kelly/Kelley family. May he Rest in Peace as God holds him in the palm of his hand.

You are in our thoughts and prayers. Your dad was such a special man. Fun memories of his visits to Santa Barbara when we lived next door to the Beamers. He was a happy fun loving guy and so proud of his kids and grandkids. He had a long full life surrounded by loving family and friends.

Kelley family, we are so sorry for your loss, but happy that you were blessed with your dad for so long. We saw him a lot, at the boys games, and of course at the annual quiet man parties (best soda bread ever)! He always had a
Book in his hand and a smile on his face. Best memory was when Laura and i were out on Halloween with the kids and he served us wine after giving the kids candy!
