David Kelly was my first cousin (my mother's brother's son). Everyone
in the family had just seen him last Decemeber at our Aunt's and
Uncle's 50th wedding anniversary. It was great to see him and
meet his fiance. He was so cheerful and glad to see everyone -
and it was great to see him. It is such a terrible loss that he
is gone. Our family is devastated.
David was one of a kind with a truly unique and interesting perspective
on all things... and always with a smile and that crazy laugh
of his. That's how I'll remember him. I regret I never had the
opportunity to see him play Jai-Alai. When we saw him in December,
he had offered to let us stay at his home so we could do Disney
World affordably - I'm sure he would have insisted that we see
him play Jai-Alai. Sadly, it will never be.
The world is a sadder place without David Kelly in it. He will
be missed by all.
