Born in Point Pleasant, NJ, Kelly resided in Little Falls for the last 30 years where she raised her family. Little Falls was the place where she enjoyed watching her children Brittany, Chelsea and Anthony Jr. grow up. Some of her favorite memories were of her children playing sports down at the Rec Center or at Passaic Valley High School. Kelly was active in the local school PTA and always remained involved in her children’s lives. As her children grew up she fulfilled her time by working part time outside her home. For the last seven years, she was employed at Burlington Mills of Pine Brook. She enjoyed working with her fellow co-workers and making a difference within the community. Kelly loved going to the beach and spending the summer down at the Jersey Shore with her family. Also, spending summer days by the pool with her family were cherished times. On football Sundays she enjoyed watching the Giants game with her family in her home. Kelly was an animal lover who adopted and loved so many pets Chloe, Gia, Sunny, Hobo, Jeters and Mickey. She had a big heart and loved to laugh, she will be missed by all who knew her.
