George R. Kelley

Dear Nancy & Sue,

I was very sorry to hear of your father's death. Rainey called me last night and told me. I shall remember your father fondly, always very welcoming when we visited your home while we were at U. Mass. He was a big guy, with a terrific sense of humor. Please know that my thoughts are with you. Hope to see you or hear from you sometime soon. Always, Janet Rome

Today, many family and friends will say goodbye to a man who has inevitably left a huge imprint on their life. I felt like a lucky one. The only grandaughter. The one who always got to break threw the tough outer shell and experience the true heart of Grandpa Kelley. I have spent the past few days racking my brain...trying to find every single memory that was about Grandpa. I dont ever want to forget the things that I shared with him.
The way he always called me "Miss America."
...

To the family of George Kelley,Sr.
Our deepest sympathy.
We are sincerely sorry to hear of your recent loss of father, grandfather. He will be missed by all but not forgotten. His memories will live on by all his children and grandchildren.
Janice & Harold Shadoff

To Grandpa Kelley: It was so nice to have finally met you at Bob & Rachel's wedding. Chad had told me much about you before the event, speaking fondly of his memories with the Kelley family and telling me all about your home in Holyoke. I wish I could have visited you at your home, but I am thankful to have had the opportunity to get to know you briefly during the wedding. You have raised an incredible family, Mr. Kelley. Your sons, daughters, and grandchildren are full of brilliance, fun,...

Grandpa Kelly, I was really saddened to hear of your misfortune but I'm sure you are already having breakfast with Connie, playing with your litle buddy, and working up a foursome for this afternoon on a course we can only dream about. It's the family and friends that you left behind that will suffer the most with your not being around. You raised a wonderful family so I'm sure you received some special recognition when St Peter met you at the gates.

I'm sure there will be many...
