Obituary of Colleen Theresa Kelly

Kelly, Colleen Theresa (nee Canning)

Retired Office Manager of St. Mary's Cathedral

It is with deep sadness that the Kelly family announces the passing of Colleen Kelly at Providence Care Hospital on April 3, 2020. Colleen is survived by her husband and lifelong dance partner of 55 years James "Terry" Kelly.  She was devoted to her family and so grateful for their love and care; particularly over the last few years.  Mother of Christina (Matthew), James (Nancie), Mary-Catherine (Thomas) and John.   Forever cherished by her grandchildren Douglas, Connor, Gavin, Aidan, Sarah and Owen; and by her great grandchildren Danni and Oliver.

Born in Parrsboro, Nova Scotia to the late John and Viola Canning, sister of Florena, and predeceased by her siblings Walter, Ruth and John. Our family wishes to extend our heartfelt thanks to the staff of Parkside 2 for caring for our beloved wife and mother over the past 14 months.

In keeping with Colleen's wishes, cremation has already taken place and a Mass of Christian Burial will take place at a later date.

For those wishing, donations to Sacred Heart Parish in Bedford or Providence Care Hospital would be appreciated by the family.
