Jon Kevin Connelly, 56, of Newburgh IN passed away on September 13th, 2025.
From a young age, Kevin was driven by passion and excellence. He once held the title of table tennis champion, a reflection of his competitive spirit and sharp mind. As he grew older, his love shifted toward the ocean. Kevin lived his life with the same energy and warmth that drew him to the ocean he so deeply loved. Whether diving beneath the waves or simply standing at the shoreline, the water was his sanctuary and greatest joy.
He was also a natural when it came to people and cars. As a car salesman, Kevin had a gift for connecting with others - not just selling cars, but building trust and friendships that often lasted long after the paperwork was signed. Customers remembered his honesty, his easy smile, and the way he made them feel valued.
Above all, Kevin will be remembered as a good man. He lived with integrity, generosity, and kindness, and those who knew him carry the memory of his steady presence and genuine heart. His daughter Lauryn keeps him forever in her heart.
He was preceded in death by his father, James William (Bill) Connelly Jr.
He is survived by his mother, Vickie Connelly; sister, Ashley (Justin) Kinsey; son, Ian Connelly; daughter, Lauryn Connelly; niece, Abigail Kinsey; nephew, Franklin Kinsey; as well as many other family, friends and colleagues who will miss him dearly.
A memorial service in Kevin's honor will be held at a later date.
