Obituary of Barbara Kelly

It is with sadness, the family announces the death of Barbara (Hall) Kelly, age 66, of Hampton, NB, wife of Joe Kelly, which occurred on March 23, 2016, at the Saint John Regional Hospital, NB. She was born on April 23, 1949, in Sussex, NB, a daughter of the late Earl and Dorothy (Titus) Hall. Barbara is survived by her husband Joe; daughter Jacqueline Kelly of Pocologan, NB, and brother; Douglas Hall and his wife Sandra of Norton, NB. She was predeceased by her parents. Barb worked as a receptionist at the Hampton Medical Centre for a number of years until she retired due to illness. Mom passed away last night. It was so very peaceful. I was with her when she just peacefully drifted into heaven. She's in a better place now and I know she's much happier. We're glad she didn't have to suffer as she passed. She was sleeping very restfully leading up to for the past couple days and has had many people who love her around her and praying for her both near and far. It makes my heart happy to think my mom is reunited in heaven with her mom, finally her heart won't be broken anymore and it makes me so happy to think how happy that makes her, she's waited a long time for that. Barb has endured a number of health ailments that she struggled daily with and pushed through and wore a brave face, so much so that many of you would not have even known. You have no idea what a relief it is for both dad and I to know that she is finally free from all of that and she's in heaven where nothing hurts anymore. She was a wonderful person, with a huge heart. A loving mother and wife. I remember growing up how much all my friends loved her so, she was always so much fun, and so funny, people gravitated to her. I will miss her every day but at the same time I have such peace knowing that she is finally able to enjoy the afterlife because this life on earth was such a daily challenge for her. That's what makes this loss so much more of a blessing than a loss. We love you now and forever Mom!
