Condolences & Tributes

We encourage you to share any memorable photos or stories about Michael. All tributes placed on and purchased through this memorial website will remain on in perpetuity for future generations.

Please accept our belated condolence to Michel N. Kelly's family. We met in the airport in Honolulu in about 1980, since then we spent many happy hours with him. He always came to visit in Calgary, on the way back from his world journey's. We spent 10 days in the campground with Ron [from Australia - rear gunner] and Mike in our beautiful mountain campgrounds. He even came to our 25th anniversary celebrations! We visited in his home a couple of times, eating lobster and having lots of laughs. The stained glass windows he donated to his church on behalf of Kitty was beautiful. The fire that destroyed so much of his collection was devastating for him, we also spent some time with Marina at our home and in their home. I spoke with him in the summer before he passed, and we also had a cruise that harboured in Halifax and we did try to get together, but that wasn't accomplished because of the number of sailing guest. We miss Mike very much, and his big happy laugh. RIP Mike!!

I wish to express my condolences to family and friends of Michael Kelly. When Michael walked into a room you knew he was there because of his larger than life presence. He always had a big smile on his face and a twinkle in his eyes and many charming ways. Michael gave of his time to help others in his community. The Bonny Lea Farm was one of his special organizations where he volunteered over the years. We also extend our sympathies to a very special friend of Michael’s and that is Jim Mosher. When Michael needed help Jim was always there.

Captain Raymond Shave sailed on the Essa SanJuan with Michael Kelly for five months and other Esso tankers several times. I am almost 92 and looking forward to reaching Michael’s age.
My condolences to Muchael’s family.

Dear Relatives of Michael N. Kelly,

We want to offer our most sincere sympathy on the passing of Michael, a dear friend of the Sarto family.

Any time Michael visited Bridgeport, a visit to the Sartos was always on his list. Many interesting stories were exchanged regarding their families, growing up and, of course,
stories related by Michael of his multiple travels and experiences.

Prayers offered and may his soul Rest in Peace.

Nobile, Condo and Betty Sarto
