Edward Kelley

Edward Glade Kelley (69) of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, passed away April 23, 2017. He was born in Pocatello, Idaho on May 1, 1947 to Jesse Rae Kelley and Bertha Kelley.

Edward truly had a love of the outdoors and it showed in his art and occupation. His job as an commercial truck-driver gave him plenty of opportunities to see the outdoors. Edward's hobby of outfitting also afforded numerous opportunities to go hunting, fly-fishing, tie flies, and go horse-back riding. Edward also enjoyed leather working, painting, and drawing. He was also a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Most of all, he loved spending time with his family.

Edward is preceded in death by his parents: Jesse Ray Kelley and Bertha Kelley; his brother, Gail Kelley; and his sisters Nona Abbott Kelley and Christine Kelley Lopez.

Edward is survived by his daughter Martti (husband Chad) VanMeeteren, his son Edward Casey (wife Stacie) Kelley; six grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; his brothers Harvey (wife Edie) Kelley, Dale (wife Lisa) Kelley, Nolan (wife Bernice) Kelley; his sister Jaylene (husband Merrill) Greenwell; sister-in-law Leona; and numerous Aunts, nephews, nieces, and cousins.

A Wake will be held in Cataldo, Idaho, at a later date; and an interment will be held in Arimo, Idaho, at a later date as well.
