Sean Thomas Kelly

As a military child born in Chicago, Sean moved many times during his younger years living on both U.S. coasts and Japan. He attended school in Virginia and California but ultimately graduated high school in New Jersey. He went on to study at Villanova University where he was a member of the crew team. Sean earned his B.S. in Chemistry and relocated to the Pacific Northwest to be closer to his parents.

Settled in Oregon, he was mentored by his uncle and learned about the real estate appraisal business. After honing his knowledge, he became the operator of his own business.

Sean enjoyed water sports and going to concerts, especially with his late cousin. Sean also loved visiting his East Coast family for Christmas every year. Everyone looked forward to these extended visits as they were always filled with much laughter (Sean was a really funny guy), game playing, movie watching and holiday festivities. He took many trips with family and friends to the Oregon coast, Hawaii, Mexico, Belize, and most recently Key West.

Sean was preceded in death by his father, John Thomas Kelly (2018), and is survived by his mother, Ann Noakes Kelly of Virginia Beach, VA, brother Tim (Kirsten), niece Brianna (Will) and nephew/godson Brendan (Kaitlin).

There are no plans for a service at this time. However, please share your memories of Sean, photos and messages of condolence to the family below.
