Harry C. Kelly Obituary

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Harry C. Kelly (Washington, District of Columbia), born in Millwood, Virginia, who passed away on January 31, 2024, at the age of 105, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Harry C. Kelly to pay them a last tribute.

He was predeceased by : his parents, Janie Randolph (Kelly) and Frank Harris Kelly; his siblings, Virginia Elizabeth Randolph and William "Peg" Kelly; his sons, Michael and Steven; and his son-in-law Vernon Henery.

He is survived by : his wife Bernice Kelly (Gibson); his daughters, Janet Kelly-Henery (Vernon) and Catherine Kelly; his granddaughters, Lauren Kelly-Washington, Ashley Henery McMillian and Chelsea Henery; his great grandchildren, Carter Richardson and Iris Maeve Henery McMillian; and his nephew Ronald Kelly.

Born in Millwood, Virginia, on November 3rd, 1918, to Janie Randolph and Frank Harris Kelly, Harry's life traversed a century, anchored between two pandemics, from the Spanish Flu in 1918 to his triumphant survival of Covid-19.
