Coach Jack Kelley Death – Dead | Obituary – Passed Away
Jack Kelley Death – Dead: A great loss was made known to InsideEko. As friends and families of the deceased are mourning the passing of their loved and cherished Jack Kelley.
From a BC fan so sorry to see coach Kelley pass. York and Parker get the credit for the BC-BU rilvary as they should. But it was Jack Kelley and “Snooks” Kelley of BC who put the rilvary in the map in the 1960’s.
Both were true class and pioneers.
