Mrs Kelly was always a great friend to Mamaw (Hazel Johnson), we have always been proud to be her neighbor for the last 38 years, we would always visit on her daily walking trips down the road until the traffic got so heavy. we will always cherish her memory. God bless the family and community as we all say see you later on the other side.
