Submitted by The Kelly Family
My name is Arthur Kelly, the proud father of the late Regan Kelly, the 21-year-old young man who went missing on Sunday, April 19, 2009.  One year later, 2010, I am here remembering that painful afternoon when I got the call.
I must say that I was 100% confident that everything would have been okay, that I would have met my boy alive. But when I got there at Little Bay Beach and could not find him I was lost for words. I could not believe it, but he was gone.
Every day I think of him and wish he was here. You see, he was everything a father would love and admire in a son. He was a kind, decent, respectable, responsible young man. He was that kind of young man that made me proud to call him my son.
GONE, BUT WILL NEVER, NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.
Love, Daddy

The great memories will live on in our hearts. Kelly continue to be strong,
God has brought us through twelve long months of pain and sadness.
I am confident that he will continue to sustain and comfort us down through the ages.
Even in our darkest hour, the Lord will bless you with his power;
His loving grace will sure abound, In his sweet care “Regan” shall be found.
God’s whisper of comfort quiets the noise of our trials.
We missed Regie dearly
Love always Grannie Norma, Aunts, Uncles & Cousins.
MISS U CUZO… GONE BUT ONLY FOR A WHILE, U STILL LIVE IN OUR HEARTS. A TRUE SOLDIER LIVES ONN….
I think of Regan quite often especially when I go to the beach. He is one individual that you can say was a decent, respectable, young man. I thank God I got the opportunity to tell him so the last time we spoke. He expressed how happy he was at that point in his life and it’s reassuring to know he is being comforted in the Father’s arms. That laugh and eloquent way he spoke makes it feel like he’s still with us. A true friend indeed.
Will always be remembered…
I too think about Regan all the time. I could not help but to break down crying just now when I saw his picture. Time after time that Sunday afternoon replays in my head. I never saw that beach in such an uproar until that day. The hours spend on the beach the following days leading up to finding his body felt so long and never ending.
To the Kelly and Brewley families; May God will continue to comfort you. He is gone but certainly not forgotten.
RIP Regan
your smile and laugh are truly misses. RIP cuz gone but will always be remembered.

May GOD continue to bless and keep your family.Continue to trust in the LORD with all your heart and lead not to thine own undersanding,in all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct your path.
I cannot believe its been a year since my bro left us. I still wake up each day hoping this is all some horrible dream. Sadly however, I am reminded of this horrible reality each night as I stare down our driveway in utter sorrow as his red jeep does not appear around 7:30 as it usually did. I miss him every single day of my life…whether its his laughter when we were cracking jokes on mommy or watching some movie no one understood but we would be killing ourselves with laughter. He may be gone but will never be forgotten. He will continue to live on in our hearts always… Rest peacefully my dear brother…I love you always….
yes he was i miss u R Kelly u will live in my heart for eva still cant believe u are gone it still feels like u are here with us i really and truly miss u kelly love always ur classmate
Thinking about you always Regan. You will never be forgotten, may your soul continue to rest in eternal peace.
Regan, although your gone in body, you will always be remembered in spirit.
I know you will be very busy as I know God has alot in store for you.
To the Kelly family, may God continue to make you all stronger as each day passes by. Just know that Regan is watching over guiding you all each day. May the Lord continue to embrace you all in his arms.
Love lways.
We miss you ALOT Regan. RIP.
Dear Mr. Kelly,
god bless you. Your son looks like a lovely person and it is great that you had a son you could be so proud of. My heart goes out to you.
RIP Regan!!
My Heart goes out to you!!
OOOH!! Mr. Kelly I feel ur pain. Be of good courage. I can’t imagine the agony you are going through losing your son.
My prayers are with you and your family, that you will find perfect peace in this time as you reflect on the death of your son.
God will never lead you into a darker path, than he had walked. He gives life and he takes it away. Always remember this, Nothing in life can happen to you unless God allows it.
Just be still and know that He is God. May the Lord bless and keep you, may His face shines upon you and gives you peace.
Blessings Be Upon You Sir.
Amen…Nicely Said
that is nicelt said indeed. Just have strenght and know that everything happens for a reason no matter how bad it may be. What ever purpose God had for his life he must have completed cause God called him home.
May God Bless You.
What a beautiful tribute to you son.
I know that Regan is in a better place – a place where you too can see him again and remain forever. Regan will always be remembered and loved by his family, friends and even those that never quite knew him. Sleep on our brother and continue to watch overr and protect us all. Stay strong Kelly and embrace those fond memories…xoxo
