He was born in Allegan, Michigan on August 4, 1942, the son of the late Llewellyn and Esther Page. He was a United States Airforce Veteran and loved duck hunting. Kelly graduated from Western Michigan University in 1971 with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree. He continued his education at John Marshall Law School, earning his law degree in 1975. That same year, he was admitted to the Michigan Bar, marking the beginning of a distinguished legal career that would span 48 years. Throughout his career, Kelly gained recognition for his dedication and expertise.

Kelly actively participated in the legal community as a member of the Van Buren County Bar Association, the American Bar Association, the State Bar of Michigan, and the National Trial Lawyers Association. His practice included representing numerous municipalities in Van Buren County as well as many local businesses.

He built a reputation for being approachable and caring, making a lasting impact on everyone he worked with. Kelly is survived by his wife, Linda Page; their children Erin Page, Emilie Bays, and Jordan Page; grandchildren, Elijah and Emilia; brother, Barron Page.
