Warner Robins, Georgia - Kelly Eugene Buller, peacefully met the face of Jesus on October 26, 2025, in Warner Robins, Georgia, at the age of 68. Born on September 21, 1957, in Ogden, Utah, Kelly was a cherished husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend whose life was a testament to kindness, generosity, and loyalty. A Rosary will be recited in his honor on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, at 5:00 PM at Heritage Memorial Funeral Home, followed by visitation until 8:00 PM.

Kelly's remarkable journey began with his service in the United States Air Force, where he dedicated his life to serving his country. Following his military career, he continued his commitment to public service as a civil servant at Robins Air Force Base, where he was known for his unwavering work ethic and dedication to his colleagues, and not to forget the 4:15'ers ball team.

As a loving husband of 29 years to Barbara Little Buller, Kelly shared a beautiful partnership built on love and mutual respect. His family was the center of his world. He was a devoted father to Shawn (Haley) Buller, Shannon (Matt) Ballard, and Shaina Buller (Bradley). He found immeasurable joy in being "G'pa" to his beloved grandchildren-Caroline Buller, Jase Ballard, Sheldon Ballard, Nolan Williams, Alyssa Ballard, Brock Buller, Nolan Ballard, and Alaina Buller. Each of them carried a piece of his heart, and he cherished every moment spent with them.

Kelly was known as the best hugger-a warm embrace was always at the ready for family and friends alike or a "I love you brother" fist bump. His generous spirit and kind demeanor left an indelible mark on the lives of those who knew him. He enjoyed the simple pleasures in life, such as woodworking, a passion that showcased his creativity and craftsmanship. His love for music, especially the timeless hits of The Beatles, echoed through joyful gatherings, creating lasting memories. He also found joy in his travels with his wife.

He is survived by his loving wife, children, and grandchildren, as well as his siblings: Madeline McNiel (Harris) Roberts, Marianne (Roddy) Gothard, Gerald (Elise) Buller, Rebecca (Jamie) Welu, and brother-in-law, Rick (Sandy) Van Lith, and sister-in-law, Gail Buller.

Buller; sister, Ann Van Lith, sister-in-law, Michelle Buller, niece, Mary Michelle Buller and great nephew, Luke Lawrence.

Kelly Eugene Buller's legacy of love and kindness will continue to inspire those who were fortunate enough to know him. His memory will forever be held in the hearts of his family and friends, a true inspiration to us all.
