Dr. John D. Kellen

John will always be remembered fondly. He was the first dentist who became "the dentist" to me. First dentist to actually get my left side numb! Which was a great event for me. We often discussed advances in dentistry. His children were students of mine at St. Mary's High School. John always seemed to be larger than life.

A fantastic dentist. He was my dentist for years, he did excellent work and had a great personality. I moved to Tx 7 yrs ago, but i am headed west, thought I'd try and get an aapt. If he was still in practice. Sadly i came up with his obituary. You will be missed. R.I.P. Dr. Kellen.

My heart is saddened. John and Marilyn became dear friends as we journeyed together through those years at Creighton. Life took us far apart in miles but the memories and love we shared remain precious. I am so privileged and grateful that John has a chapter in my own book of life. I pray that the soul of this faithful departed friend may rest in eternal peace.

We shall reunite in heaven and paint and wallpaper a few houses.

John was a wonderful man with a kind heart, who always greeted me with a smile. I have fond memories of him washing his car on the weekends, always stopping to wave as I passed by. The Kellen family will always hold a special place in my heart. While he is missed, John's spirit is alive in his children and grandchildren.

A great and upbeat guy.

Dr. Kelley was the very best that our family ever had. Thank you for taking care and explaining everything. You will always be part of us.

Shocked to hear of the passing of Dr. Kellen, I have to say he was the best dentist I have ever had. He always made time to ask about each of my children when there. I always remember his stomach growling when work on my teeth... I was saddened when he retired. RIP Doc, someone up there needs a good dentist... Prayers and Thoughts to the Family...

Dr. Kellen, thank you for taking care of our dental needs for 20 years. I'm sadden to hear of your passing but honored to have met you. You took great care of our four children and my scardy cat husband! Hugs and prayers to your family
