Kim Kelly

I met Kim in Matzalan, getting off a jet, he had spilled his guitar case in the airport under the noses of the Federales. I helped him pick up and we chatted briefly. Luckily we met up later and played with the local band Veritas, From that time on he always generously let me sit in with his band at his band's venues and encouraged me to perform. It was such a positive impact he had on my musical pursuits, without his influence, I would be at square one, too shy to play live.

Missing you.

Wanting to contact Kim's Mother, Robin Tibbs Kelly, If she is still well, and able..

Dear Kellys,
Just learned of Kim's passing today and send you my sincere sympathy. Kim was so talented and always entertaining. I will remember him and my brother Clark laughing together until they cried and riding their motorcycles together causing harmless mischief. Our family has great memories of Kim and all of you. Fondly, Janet Ward Francis (Craig & June Ward's daughter)

Dear Robyn, Kristin and Kandis:
I can't begin to tell you how sad I am for your loss.
When I last saw Kim, fairly recently, he was vibrant and full of his natural charm. And that's how I'll remember him.
It was a blessing for me to get to know him while he was going to school and living with Joanna and I.
I will always cherish that natural charm, his wit, and woderfully, inquisitive mind.
Kindest regards
Don Marx

I was so sorry to hear of the death of Kim. As I remember him, he was full of energy and life. What a happy reunion that he is having with his dad, for sure. I have always loved the Kelly family. My mother and dad love you, too.

So surprised to hear of Kim's sudden passing. I think fondly of him as a talented young musician with a great sense of humor. We shared wonderful experiences together as members of the New Oregon Singers in the 1970's and 1980's. He will be missed.
