Stanley Kelly Obituary

Stanley J. Kelly Jr. "Kelly," 85, of Dallas, passed away Sunday, Oct. 26, 2025, in Wilkes-Barre General Hospital.

Born in Old Forge, he was the son of the late Stanley and Eleanor Kelly.

After retirement, he spent his time at home, where his pride and joy was caring for his property. An avid hunter and fisherman, he loved the outdoors and the peace it brought him, especially on a warm sunny day. He was always willing to lend a hand and enjoyed sharing stories from the past with his dearest friends. Always offering a lesson about life, he will be sadly missed and forever cherished.

Funeral services will be held privately in accordance with Kelly's wishes.

Arrangements are by Harold C. Snowdon Funeral Home Inc., Shavertown.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
