He was an awesome example and taught all of us how to live life, represent the Kelly family and how to treat others respectfully. We are the men we are today because of the love that both Mom and Dad showed us and taught us how to love people. They are symbols of where “Kelly Tough” came from; their strength and courage guides us though this journey of life. They made sure that we understood how important family is; that bond can never be broken. More importantly, both Mom and Dad instilled in us their faith in Jesus Christ and for that we are eternally grateful. Someday, we will join Mom, Dad, Hunter and our loved ones in Heaven. Just remember what they believed, “Families are Built on Love and Faith.” A special thanks to Carol Cousins for the all the love and support she gave dad over the years; along with all those that loved and cared for him.” He is survived by six sons, Patrick J. and wife, Trish of Richmond VA, Edward P. and wife, Nanci of Houston TX, Raymond J. and wife, Pamela of Richmond VA, James E. and wife, Jill of Orchard Park, NY, Daniel J. and wife, Kathleen of Amherst NY, and Kevin P. and wife, Charlene of Wheatfield, NY; 14 grandchildren, Sean, Brian, Matt, Christian, Allison, Erin, Camryn, Chad, Casey, Zac, Connor, Dylan, Mitchell and Faith; five great- grandchildren, Aubrey, Ryland, Christopher, Savanah and McKenzy.
