Johnny David Kelly was born October 8, 1956 and left for his heavenly home October 20, 2024. He was preceded in death by his mother, Ramona and father Joe. He is survived by his beloved wife, Linda.
He leaves behind his siblings Judy, Janie and Jerry and their spouses. He also leaves behind his kids, David, Kevin, Tina and Lin and their spouses Melanie, Amy and Eli. He undeniably adored all of his grandkids, Elizabeth, BJ, Riley, Dade, Jackie, Echo, Jackson, Wyatt, Cody, Payton and Emma. He also leaves behind his great grand babies, Laiklyn and Paysli Rich, Bryson and Brynnleigh Kelly, as well as more nieces and nephews than we can count and any of their friends that ever knew him, knew him as Papaw.
Johnny fought like a soldier in one of his war movies until the very end. He was the first to offer help in any way he could. If he wasn’t outside tinkering with something he was watching a Western or aggravating anyone that stopped by for a visit.
There will be a graveside service at Burrows Cemetery in Madisonville Tx Thursday October 24th, 11am followed by a dinner at Mesquite Hill Baptist Church.
