Glenn Kelly

Born in Ottawa, Ontario, Glenn was the son of the late Lester and Dorothy Kelly, and stepson of the late Constance Lemieux-Kelly (née Foster). He was predeceased by his brothers Richard and Robert (Margaret) and survived by stepsisters Lucie (Jean-Pierre), Joanne, and Charlaine (Marc).

Glenn was a devoted husband, a dedicated father, and a loving grandfather. He will be deeply missed by his wife of 35 years, Sheila (née Foran); his children, Megan, Fr. Jonathan, Cullen (Gabrielle), and Neil (Leigh-Anne); his grandchildren, Patrick, Isabelle, and Harper; and his many nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends.

Glenn spent many successful years in car sales before transitioning to real estate. He had a lifelong passion for cars and music. He treasured memories of family vacations — especially trips to Lake Kipawa. He cherished Sunday dinners with his family, a tradition that continued long after the kids left home.
