Michael John Kelly

Michael John Kelly, 69, of Alpharetta, Georgia passed away on Tuesday, November 25, 2025. Born on January 3, 1956, in Glen Allen, Illinois. He was the beloved son of the late John Joseph Kelly and Margaret Katherine Kelly.

Mike graduated from Santa Clara University, and he spent much of his professional life working as an account manager — dedicated and dependable in his career. In his spare time, Mike loved to read and explore the outdoors hiking. He had a deep sense of adventure, often setting out in his teardrop camper to enjoy weekend trips and time in nature. His faith and generosity also found expression through his time with Cloud Walk Ministry, where he led small groups, served, and poured into his

community.

Family and friends always counted on Mike for his warm

hospitality and thoughtful conversations. Mike’s legacy lives on in the hearts of those who knew him — in the laughter shared around family dinners and in the kindness he offered to all. May he rest in peace, forever remembered with love.

He is survived by his sons, Sean (Lynn) Kelly and Patrick (Jessica) Kelly; grandchildren, Colton Kelly and Reeves Kelly; and sisters, Karen Brown and Kathy Kelly — along with numerous extended family members and friends who will cherish his memory.

A service to honor Mike will be held Tuesday, December 9, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at H.M. Patterson Canton Hill Funeral Home. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to Cloud Walk Ministry (www.cloudwalk.org/give), in honor of Mike’s passion for serving others.
