At age 15 he began his life long career as a brick mason. He worked with several companies along the coast and in north Mississippi with the most recent being Jones Construction. He was very proud of his work, and loved what he did.
In Kelly's younger days he was very athletic and enjoyed playing a variety of sports including football, basketball, softball, bowling, and golf. He loved the Saints and LSU and never missed watching a game. Kelly always had a smile on his face and was a great "story" teller. His children are still trying to figure out who the "man with a horse" is that he was always going to see. He will be deeply missed by his family and friends.
