In Loving Memory of Benjamin James Kelly November 22, 1997 – October 11, 2024

Benjamin James Kelly, lovingly known as "Ben" by friends and family, was born on November 22, 1997, on Long Island, New York. He went to be with the Lord on October 11, 2024. Ben was a devoted father who adored his daughter, Emory, and cherished every moment they shared together.

Ben is survived by his father, Stephen Kelly of Medford, NY, his mother, Jamie Lyn Harrell, and stepfather, George Harrell of Wilmington, NC. He leaves behind three beloved sisters, Abby, Chloe, and Kaleigh, as well as his paternal grandmother "Mema" and maternal grandmother "Yaya," with whom he shared a deep and special bond.

Known for his caring spirit, infectious sense of humor, and love for music and gaming, Ben was a person who touched the hearts of all who knew him. His kindness and generosity live on through his incredible gift of organ donation, saving the lives of three individuals—a final act of compassion that is a testament to the life he led.

Ben will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and everyone fortunate enough to have known him. His memory will forever remain in the hearts of those he touched. He is gone from our sight, but never from our hearts. May he rest in peace, loved and remembered always.
