Kevin Kelly, age 75, passed away on Tuesday, July 30, 2024, at Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital in Needham, Massachusetts. Born in Brookline, Massachusetts on December 16, 1948, he was the son of Thomas and Margaret (Doyle) Kelly. Kevin was raised in Brookline and attended Brookline High School. After graduation, Kevin took EMT classes through the City of Boston. 

Kevin married the love of his life, Susan A. Cleary on May 13, 1971, in the North End of Boston. The pair made their married home in Boston. Here, Kevin took a role as an EMT with Boston EMS, becoming a sergeant in 1973. He later became the Director of Operations for a private ambulance company, before moving to Walpole, Massachusetts.
