Covering a span of two decades Rober Kelly, Jr. was my barber. He was the consummate professional. He was well respected in the Woodlawn community. He was a humble servant leader in Groveland Baptist Church. Thanks Kelly for being you!

One of the great men of the Woodlawn Community. Robert Kelly, Jr. was a man of integrity. He and my mother (Lucy Bryant-Green) were responsible for the financial affairs of Groveland Baptist Church for decades. She many times spoke of her admiration of him. He is missed!!

"The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way" Psalms 37:23. Mr. Kelly's legacy in the Woodlawn/Groveland community is solidified in the hearts and minds of black men across the US and beyond. I admired him from afar and truly respected him.The environment he created at "Kelly's" and at Groveland Baptist Church helped me grow into a man. He will be truly missed! I extend my sincere condolences to the Kelly Family.
