Ronald Lennis Kelley

At the Pembroke Regional Hospital on Wednesday, April 30, 2025. Ronald Kelley age 74 years. Loving father of Blair Kelley (Stephanie Walsh) and Neil Kelley both of Deep River. Cherished grandfather of Bennett and Nathan Kelley. He is also survived by Bea Kelley, his former wife and mother of his children. Dear brother of Marjorie Turcotte (the late Elton) of Pembroke and Michael Kelley and his wife Cathy of Petawawa. Predeceased by a brother Robert Kelley and a sister Lynn Dament. Also survived by his sister-in-law Wanda Webber Kelley and a brother-in-law Larry Dament, and several nieces and nephews. 

Ron dedicated many years of service to Ontario Hydro, where he took great pride in his work. He had a lifelong passion for cars, a keen interest in history, enjoyed coaching baseball and hockey, and a love for travel that took him to many corners of the world. Known for his quirky wit, Ron never passed up the chance for a good conversation. Above all, he treasured time with his two sons, to whom he passed on his love of hockey, fishing, and the great outdoors.

Respecting Ron’s wishes cremation will take place. A private family Celebration of Life will take place at a later date. In memory of Ron, donations to the charity of your choice would be gratefully appreciated.

Funeral arrangements entrusted to the Valley Funeral Home, Deep River.
