John Stirling Kelly has found peace. His soul rests with those who have gone before him. His father, John Stirling Kelly Sr., his brother Gary, and sister-in-law Jane. John is survived by his daughters Jade (Bailey), Jenna, and their mother Josie. He also leaves to mourn, his mother Anne, sister Marie (Randy) and brothers, Brian, Brent (Dianne) and Stephen.
John was born and raised in Victoria and followed his father’s career path. He was a proud boilermaker, working at Yarrows Shipyard for 31 years. John’s sense of humour enlightened many friends and family and will remain as a source of comfort in the memories of all that had the pleasure of knowing him.
A small private family service will be held in the upcoming days. Condolences may be offered to the family below.

My condolences to all the Kelly family.
Sorry to hear about John. I worked with John for many years at Yarrows, along with Steve and Jack. I even had the pleasure of working with John at the Dockyard years ago.
