Kelly that I went to high school with died of a sudden heart attack. I had just ran into him a couple of months prior. It was very shocking to hear. It was the first person I have known that passed away from my graduating class.

We were friendly and hung out a bunch in high school but I hadn’t really seen him since high school. I didn’t feel like I needed to go to his funeral but my friend talked me into it.

His celebration of life was nice. Seemed like he really loved his kids. We did run into a few other people from high school and decided to go to the bar in town with them after. It was fun to catch up with them and hear what they were up to.

I found some pictures of Kelly from high school. He is the one on the left.
