I worked with Al at early voting. We shared many ideas about food to cook. We will miss his cheer, organization, and commitment to the community. Pat Carstensen

Dear Cuz, I will miss our conversations and all the laughter we would have talking about family. Although you have gone before me, I will never forget you. Death doesn't get the last word. Resurrection does. Much love, Cousin Sandra Leak Revish

Please accept my heartfelt sympathy for your loss.. my prayers and thoughts are with you and the family during this difficult time. Rosa Monroe

44 years of true friendship. I will miss him, our talks, but I bless God for having sent AL Kelly to share in my journey. May peace come in time to the family, and sweet rest be upon My Friend AL. Joycee (Howell)

Rest in peace my lifelong friend and neighbor. We've shared a plethora of priceless family memories over the decades. We even learned how to cook superior meals and deserts at the same time. Especially your Mom's Pineapple pound cake recipe. I will be making one soon in your honor! So many holidays and barbeques and fun playing outside when we were growing up and most of all playing the "the dozens, with instant wit that kept us all laughing with and at one another through these decades. Thank you so much for being so genuine! You will be truely missed.

In loving memory, Flowers have been sent From Angelique Bellamy and Family - June 23, 2022

To the family and friends of Al, my prayers are with you in times like this. I will cherish the memory when we had church at the family reunion in the park. I am thinking about the years Al and I shared on the LIRR one day at a time. Rev. James Robert Kent Aka Juice.

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
