Not just a good guy- A Really Good Guy Who will be missed by many- Family, friends, colleagues,students... Ron and CB his wife Jane were two of the people I most relied on years ago and they never failed to come through for the sake of our Guidance Department and the hundreds of students the Kelly´s counseled over the many years. Their contributions to the district are many too many to begin to list. I´m sure Ron´s doing his best counseling in Heaven. Rest in Peace!!

RIP Coach. I will never forget you. Thank you so much for being there for me as coach and counselor. Your impact on me and so many others can not be measured. I thank you for encouraging me to keep playing when I wanted to quit. I think of you occasionally and remember you stressing the fundamentals and all the drills we ran like it was yesterday. My sincere condolences to your family, I know you will be missed. Dr. Tom Decker TJHS `76

Our sincere condolences to the Kelly family for your loss. Ron was a wonderful coach, colleague and friend. Both Ron and Jane were very supportive of our soccer program, my number one faculty fans. I have great memories of those days. May God Bless his beautiful soul. The Cortico family.

Coach Kelly and his wife were like family to us. It was a pleasure watching him coach from the sidelines and guiding the 78 team to the Union County Championship and the up to the State regional. The Kelly's even attended the weddings of both my brother and me. My sincerest condolences to the family and may God bless you with peace and comfort during this time of bereavement.
