A great kid
Jimmy Kelly was one of the nicest kids I ever knew. I don't think I ever heard an unkind word from his mouth, we went to St. Clare's School in Rosedale, NY and Jimmy Kelly was one of the neighborhood's greatest athletes. Everybody liked him-I never heard anyone say anything negative about him, he was "The All American" boy in every way! And one of the best looking guys around-he'd put Brad Pitt to shame. He was a class act all around, and was deeply mourned by all when news of his death reached our little town. May God bless him, and hold him in the palm of his hand, this day and always!
