SINCERE SYMPATHY

Is extended to the family of the late Vincent Kelly, Boytonrath, New Inn.

Vincent, age 75, sadly left us on the 22nd of February, 2023, surrounded by his loving family. Vincent was born on the 30th of October 1947 to John and Kitty (née Downey) Kelly of New Inn. After Vincent graduated from Rockwell College in 1966, he moved to England, where he met his beloved wife, Teresa. They were married in 1973, then travelled the world together, visiting over fifty countries. Vincent and Teresa had eight children; Leon, Tia, Chelan, Ciaran, Caitlin, Oisín, Eithné, and Gwyneth Kelly. In 1990, after living abroad for many years, Vincent returned with his family to the country, farm and home of his childhood, which he so deeply loved. His care and respect for the land lead him and Teresa to organic farming and restoring the family cottage to its original form. Vincent continued to travel the world and have many adventures at home and afar, including in 2019, when he walked 700 kilometres of the famous Camino de Santiago. He was a man of faith, an artist, a fisherman, a world traveller, a farmer and an incredible storyteller. He had a great love for literature, poetry, music, nature, sports and his family. Above all, he was a wonderful father and pop-pops and was adored by all nine of his grandchildren; Indira, Elijah, Isaac, Cashel, Piper, Judah, Kora, Maya and Amalie. Those who had the fortune of knowing Vincent loved and admired him for his kind and gentle heart, and will be dearly missed. Vincent is survived by his cherished wife, Teresa; seven of his eight loving children; his nine grandchildren; and his sisters, Irene Kelly, Marita Marouf and nephew Fayçal Marouf.
