Bryan Kelley

Bryan Keith Kelley was born in Ada, Oklahoma on August 14, 1975 to David Kelley and Betty Myers Kelley. He died on March 9, 2024.
He lived in a tiny cabin on 40 acres of land East of Vamoosa, Oklahoma. As a child, he attended Byng elementary school, Byng, Oklahoma. Then his family moved to Clark Air Base in the Philippines where he attended middle school. It was in the village outside of Clark that he received his first tattoo much to the shock of his mother. Then the family transferred to Wuerzburg Army Base, Germany where he completed his high school education. Bryan enjoyed living in Germany and made friends that he has kept in touch with. It was in Germany that he met his first wife, Linda Rodriguez. They had a son together, Kyle David Kelley. Kyle and his wife, Destiny, gave Bryan three wonderful grandchildren, Sarinna, Anacia, and Ezekiel. He also has two adopted children, Staton and Neveah Kelley, from his second marriage.
Bryan was a quiet, sensitive, introvert that preferred living in an area isolated from people. Although he had many friends, his best friend was his beloved dog, Bones. They went everywhere together. He enjoyed hunting. He liked Arby's burgers, Dr. Pepper, chocolate brownies, and spicy Mexican food. He was naturally very skilled at repairing small engines. He could fix any lawn mower brought to him. He was also a good plumber, electrician, painter, and carpenter. He was employed at DART in Ada for 15 years as a forklift operator until his health declined so that he wasn't able to continue working.
He will always be loved and missed by his parents, his sister, Dana Kelley and her son, Michael Kelley, his children and grandchildren, his friends, aunts, uncles, and cousins..
A Celebration of Life gathering and spreading of ashes will be held at the cabin in Vamoosa in the near future. Watch for a time and date announcement on his sister, Dana Kelley's Facebook page.
