Not sure what to say?

Mr. Kelly has always been my favorite teacher. He was an inspiration throughout my 39 year elementary teaching career. Mr. Kelly was my 6th grade teacher at Huntertown Elementary School.

Mr. Kelly taught me about life and my place in it.

Mr Kelly -- oh my, my very favorite teacher at South Side -- he truly cared about his students. Such an example for the teachers -- went above & beyond for his students.

My thanks for such a wonderful tribute to Mr. Kelly. He was a great educator and he will be missed. Linda Black

Mr. Kelly was a gem. He was so encouraging and being mentored by him was pure joy. I never would have had the guts to play Mary in J.C. Superstar without his gentle spirit nudging me forward.

Mr. Kelly-- a hero, mentor and later friend over the years. What a gift he gave to so many of us--the key word is gave....that was his life--giving to all. He was one of the bigger influences in my life while at SSHS and even later. He will be missed.

Rest in Peace Mr. Kelly. Thanks for you dedication and friendship to DB.

Bob had a major impact in my years at South Side. Larger than life! The world needs more people like Bob.

Mr Kelly, in a long line of students whose life you changed in immeasurable ways and some very measurable. You are lifted up on all our voices singing your praises. Thank you.
