  1. Linda. May God comfort you and your family. I will always remember Kelly from our RV days. I still remember him saying “don’t you dare put any mixer in that 25 year old scotch” as he handed me a glass of it. He was always so jovial and pleasant to be around.

  2. He was a loved man by his family and always had a smile. Sending thoughts and prayers for the family
