From the early days of Angelo and Eleni’s relationship, getting to meet and spend time with Kelly was such a joy. From times going out in Boston all together, to officiating Eleni & Ange’s wedding, to watching videos of Kelly reading to our Leo… you could always see there was so much love Kelly could give. This is the spirit of Kelly that will live on. I’ll always remember him with that big smile. May his memory be eternal.

I had the pleasure of working with Kelly at Toast when I first joined the company on a project called “Ways of Working.” Kelly and I were tasked with speaking to managers about leading with empathy.
As someone who was fairly new to HR and my role, this was all uncharted territory for me. However, as soon as I started working with Kelly, it was clear that not only was he an expert in empathy, but he also lived it every day. He was a man who was continuously learning and genuinely curious about other people’s perspectives.
Kelly introduced me to the Platinum Rule: treating people the way they want to be treated. He was authentic, kind, and just a genuinely good person. He will be deeply missed, but the way he carried himself and the positive impact he had on those around him will live on. Though he can’t be here physically, I know the legacy he left behind will continue to keep his spirit alive.

So sorry to hear of Kelly’s passing. He was always so generous - willing to share a laugh or career guidance. For me, this meant helping me to find a new career path and supporting me through each step at a new company. You will be missed, Kelly.

Our daughter, Clare Malone, was a friend and classmate of Kelly’s at Williams College. We only met Kelly a few times, but he made a real impression on us as a gregarious, warm, and charming young man. We are sad to know he left all who loved him so early on his journey.

Another high-school friend gone to soon, I remember playing football with him, also watching him play hockey as well. We didn't really hang out but the times we did speak or were together on football field , or somtimes at a party/function, in the hallways at school he was always great guy. You will be missed brother.

I met Kelly in 2019 - when my daughter defended her dissertation at BU. Maddie and Katherine were friends back in high school and reconnected when Katherine moved to Boston in 2013. Who could not love Kelly? My feelings about him were that he had the personality that was big - and generous enough to be compatible with Maddie. I like to think that I was right. I'm so very sorry about this loss. There are really no words to make this better. I only know that he lived - genuinely and generously and I am grateful for knowing him just a little.

Our memory of Kelly is of a giant puppy younger brother on the sidelines of his sister's BC field hockey games, smiling and ready to give her a bear hug after the game. We are saddened that the world lost such a source of joy and light. Our hearts are with all of his family and friends.

I have many memories playing sports with Kelly. We didn't hang out outside of sports but when we were on that field, I looked up to him, I hope he knew that. He was a warrior, we battled together in some dog fights, especially our loss to central in the state finals are sophomore year. Im so deeply saddened and send my love and prayers to his family. Rest in peace Kelly
