Paige Marie Kelly passed away on Friday, October 28, 2016, at Emory University Hospital surrounded by family and caring Hospice nurses, after a long struggle to recover from a brain aneurysm.
Paige was born in Annapolis, Md. on October 4, 1975, and lived in Crofton, Md., during her childhood. Her family moved to Peachtree City, Ga., in 1989, where she became a member of Christ Our Shepherd Lutheran Church and graduated from McIntosh High School. She later attended Berry College, worked at several local restaurants, The Citizen Newspaper, and Cooper Lighting.
After her marriage in 1998, she moved to Senoia, Ga., with her husband, Kevin, where they have been raising their family. Paige had a passion for helping animals. She was a music lover and an avid sports fan. Her greatest joy was in her family and friends, and she used her gift for listening and caring to help many.
Paige is survived by her husband, Kevin Kelly; her daughters, Hannah Kelly and Ava Kelly; and her step-son, Christopher Kelly; her parents, Wendy and Daniel Delage; and step-brother, Daniel Delage; her grandfather, Edward Longenecker; her Aunt Lori and Uncle Jeff Johanson; and cousins Katie, Ben and Emily Johanson. In addition, she is survived by MacKenzie family members in Massachusetts. All were close to her heart.
Her memorial service will be held on Saturday, November 5, 2016 at 1 p.m. at Christ Our Shepherd Lutheran Church, 101 North Peachtree Parkway, Peachtree City, Ga., 30269. A reception will follow the service.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Christ our Shepherd Angels Fund to provide educational scholarships for children.
