As an author doing research on the Black church's in Mobile, Mrs. Kelly helped me to piece together some missing history pertaining to the organizing of Little Rock Baptist Church. She knew the organizer's personally from her childhood. She was a very beautiful and talented lady. The valuable history she shared with me will be cherished for generations to come.

While we haven't seen Mary Kirk Kelly in some years, we knew her and loved her as a beautiful person and talented artist. We have and we cherish about a dozen pieces of her ceramic and clay fruits and vegetables and crabs. They will now continue to be a valuable part of our collection in memory of her. The family will be in our prayers.
