Dad,
I'm sitting here on this late night, thinking of you. I've been thinking of you a lot lately. You were my father, my best friend and now my angel. I miss you terribly every single day. I try to hold my self together because I know you are at peace, but I can't help that my heart is breaking. Dad, I will miss seeing your cheerful smile, and how you could always make me laugh. You were the smartest man I had ever known. Thank you for always being you. For being a great father and giving me the best memories I will always hold dear to my heart and cherish forever. You faught a tough and long battle but through it all, you were always smiling. It so hard to come to the realization that you are really not here, but I feel like I can here you say, " my Katey, be strong, never give up and I am here with you always." I know you are saving a place for me in heaven next to you. We'll have lots to talk about and I know from within that moment you will have me laughing and smiling. I bet you'll either be building an airplane, inventing something or on the water fishing. I will always miss you, but I know you know I will always love you, my dearest father.
Love always, your Katey Lee AKA you "jellybean"

I'm sitting here thinking of you dad. These days with out you are hard, as I'm so used to talking to you. I may have not been able to hear your voice, but our texts everyday and the moments I did spend with you, are moments that will live in my heart forever. You were a great father as you were a great friend. I know you are in heaven and at peace now, but I can't help but miss you so much. I'm proud of the man you had become. I looked up to you. You were so smart and had the best sense of humor out of anyone I have ever known. Growing up and till the very end, you were always building things. You could never get enough of predicting and coming up with your own I inventions. I do cry sometimes, because I do miss you and the love I have for you will always be within me. I will always love you and even though you are gone, you are still my father. I love you!! Until we meet again. P.s. Please save a seat for me up there. Have something already set up for us to build together. Xxoo
Always and forever, your Katey a.k.a. Jellybean
Always and forever, your Katey a.k.a. Jellybean

I'll miss my good friend Kelley. We worked together 25 years at Textron. Like many of his other co-workers I spent a lot of time on travel with Kelly all over the states...from Yuma Az, to Ft Greely AK. Kelly was always a dependable team-player and would be ready and willing to help out his co-workers whenever needed. It was always a good time hanging with Kelley ... loads of memories & friends. Take care pal, say hi to Al for me ...Mike Chory

I was sorry to hear of Kelley's passing. "Kell" (as I called him) and I worked at Textron together the entire time he worked there. Countless times we were "out in the field together" too many places to name. I will admit my favorite beer was the same as Kell and we shared many a toast together back in the day. His sense of humor kept us all going on every test. Kell was well known for his technical expertise and I also remember swapping Army stories, as I served as well.
My condolences to the family and I will say good bye to you Kell this Friday with many of our colleagues from the plant. RIP

So sorry to the family for this loss. I certainly remember all of the times that we worked together over the years. We would talk about our kids and our times in the Army. Many weeks at a time on the road, whether in Yuma, Grayling, Aberdeen or other locations, you were the most animated guy on the trip. Lots of memories kid. The trying times and the times of laughter. Rest in peace buddy.

It is with a heavy heart I am writing this condolence. My deepest sympathy go out to all of Kelley's family. Kelley was "One Of A Kind"! Someone you could count on, someone who truly cared about everything he did. We spent many a long day(and night!) working for Textron. He was one of those people who I looked forward to working with and could always count on to come through in the clutch! But the best of times were after a long workday in the field was over and we got a chance to kick back and toss down a few cold ones(Bud of course!) and talk about the next days plans and everything else under the sun. He was a great man and a great friend! I was blessed to have known him and he will be missed. Although I won't be able to pay my respects in person, know that I will be there in spirit and at 8PM Friday I'll crack open a Bud for my friend Kelley. Rest in peace Kelley.
