Time is going bye so fast. It will be 11 years within a few days since you have been gone. Since then, other loved ones have left us as well. I know you there waiting with your arms open when Jimmy arrived Not a day goes by without thinking about you.

It is hard to believe it has been eight long years. The pain of loss in our hearts never goes away, we just learn to live with it. I hope your pain has eased over the years Cyndi. RIP Mr. Kellas.

It is so hard still for me to believe that the more week it will be one year . It is not getting any easier , the pain is worse at times . I just thank God that we were able to mend our hearts together while I spent the time with you in the hospital, I wish with all my heart that we could bring back all those lost years.I miss & Love you so very much.

For my dad..I love you xo I found one of his poems as he has many. Life's Lessons
By James Hugh Kellas
I've seen the land of Israel,
I've seen the Azore shores,
I've seen the lands of which others often dream,
and I've seen many, many hopeless wars,
felt contempt, compassion, pity and remorse, and in doing this as all men must, discovered my principles, my values, myself trust ........

Condolences to Jim's family. My prayers are with you at this difficult time. I worked with Jim for 2 years at the Flat Rock Towers. He would do most anything for anyone that needed assistance. He will be missed. God be with you.

Dear Ones,
We are so sorry for your loss. I remember having a delightful talk with Jim at Rachel and John's wedding. I know you will miss him so. In Ephesians Chapter 1, God is described as the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort. Lean on Him in these days ahead. With our sympathy and prayers.

Cindy, Jimmy and Jeff - so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. He was a good brother-in-law to Nancy and I and we have many fond memories of him, we're just sorry we didn't get to see him the last time we were up there. He was a very funny and talented guy and we enjoyed his company and will miss him. We're thinking about you during this difficult time.

Love Uncle Charlie and Aunt Nancy

Your with Jesus now Grandpa. No more pain and weariness for you. I can just picture you running in to God's arms flashing that beautiful and contagious smile that we knew and loved. I love you and I'll see you again. I'm proud to be your grandson.
May the blessing of light be on you - light without and light within. May the blessed sunlight shine on you like a great peat fire, so that stranger and friend may come and warm himself at it. And may light shine out of the two eyes of you, like a candle set in the window of a house, bidding the wanderer come in out of the storm. And may the blessing of the rain be on you, may it beat upon your Spirit and wash it fair and clean, and leave there a shining pool where the blue of Heaven shines, and sometimes a star. And may the blessing of the earth be on you, soft under your feet as you pass along the roads, soft under you as you lie out on it, tired at the end of day; and may it rest easy over you when, at last, you lie out under it. May it rest so lightly over you that your soul may be out from under it quickly; up and off and on its way to God. And now may the Lord bless you, and bless you kindly. Amen.
I love you forever and always, your grandson, John Mitchell Martinez
