Condolence: Mr. Kelley, as I remember him, was one of the custodial staff at St. John Elementary when I was very young in grade school. He was a favorite among all the students and I remember him always going the extra mile to make us laugh or smile. He brought so much joy to all of the students in very simple ways during the school day, and was such a kind man. My deepest sympathies to the family. Eternal rest grant to him, O Lord; and let light perpetual shine upon him. May his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
