Sympathy to the family of another classmate from Littlestown Class of 1958. Remember Kelly as a football player, quiet, and the last time I had talked with him, was an invite to the Class of 58 lunch at home farm a couple years ago. It was then he told me of his cancer. Sounds like he fought for a long time. Sorry for your loss. Arlene

Leuella and family, May God be with all of you during this trying time. It has been a long hard road for Kelly and the rest of you as Kelly struggled with his years of illness. Now Kelly is at rest and it is time to celebrate his life. Remember him for the good and loving man that he was. Remember the terrific husband and father that all of you cherished. Be at peace with his loss knowing that some day soon you will join him with our Lord. God Bless.
