Dennis Wayne Kelly, 74, of Milford, PA, passed away on September 24,
2023. He was born on April 6, 1949, in Franklin, NJ, to Kenneth and Mae
Kelly.

Dennis was a proud Vietnam veteran, having served in the United States
Army. He received a Purple Heart in 1967 for wounds received during the
Battle of LZ PAT. Dennis was a true hero who dedicated his life to
serving his country.

After his military service, Dennis spent the majority of his career at
Schering-Plough Research Institute in Lafayette, NJ, where he worked as
the wastewater treatment plant operator. He was known for his hard work
and dedication to his job.

In his personal life, Dennis was a loving father and husband. He was
married to Sandra Kelly for 48 years and together they raised three
daughters; Kelly Shaffer, Shannon Stephens, and Eryn Kelly. Dennis was
also a proud grandfather to his grandsons, Bradyn and Brody, his
granddaughters, Jade, Rebekkah, and Chloe Bea, and his
great-grandchildren, Paige, Zachary, and Isabella. He cherished his role
as a “Pop Pop” and loved spending time with his grandchildren.

Dennis had a passion for fishing and golfing.

Per his request, there will be no funeral services.

The James H. Wilson Funeral Home in Lake Ariel, PA, is assisting the
family with the arrangements. Their support and guidance during this
difficult time are greatly appreciated.

Dennis is survived by his beloved wife Sandra, his daughters,
grandchildren, great-grandchildren, sister Barbara Kelly, brother Gerald
Kelly, and many nieces and nephews. He is predeceased by his parents,
Kenneth and Mae Kelly, his brothers, Gary, Kenny, Robert, and Michael
Kelly, and his sisters, Peggy Sue Kelly and Patricia Cronk.

Dennis will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. May his
memory live on in the hearts of those he touched.
