I just found out about Kelly’s passing and I wanted to let you know what a great leader he was to me when he was the service manager at Atlas Copco. He was one of the reasons I joined back on 2001 and he really made it a great experience for me. I’m sorry we didn’t stay in touch after he left. He was a good person, always made you feel good about yourself and was always there for you when you needed him.
That wonderful smile says it all.
My sincerest condolences to your family.

Kelly's passing has left a deep void in our family. We miss him but each and everyday we feel his presence. During the past year Kelly was very sick. His health was like a pendulum swinging from one extreme to the other. Everyday everyone in the house made sure he was comfortable and safe. This included Luke making him smoothies and checking on him through the day. Mike would spend time watching FBI or Frasier with him and Colena would tell him jokes and do the crazy dance in the hallway. Our kids have always been our stabilizer. They have kept me up on days that seem to swallow me. Bowie, Kelly's favourite girl and cat would also be there everyday either on his chest or on his legs. Her love for Kelly was also unconditional, she actually slept on the hospital bed waiting for him until it was returned. I know we are all grieving and everyone has a certain way of dealing with this. I feel that grief is like the waves in the ocean. Sometimes the waves ripple and wash over you, other days a simple trigger can cause a tidal wave and you find yourself empty and alone. My wish for everyone is that we can remember the beautiful memories of Kelly and have those waves gently roll over us. His soul and spirit are here and now his energy is not only been welcomed but also applauded in heaven.

Kelly was an Angel
He appeared whenever We needed help
While living on a hill in Truro, as a small boy about 2 he would drag his red peddle sports car up the drive way and put it away then go and get Kevin’s
As kids on Northhaven Drive in Port Credit he would bike ride from morning until dark, exploring miles away, with Kevin, David and Peter Mc Niece and Brad Taylor and other boys
A haunted house, an Apple orchard on Cawthra road, running through the large drain pipes in Delwood park believing they were chased by monsters
Sometimes I would join them and if any boy had a problem with that Kelly gently explained that I was no trouble and would be coming along.
It was likely because of Kelly that I began thinking around 12 years of age that I might be able to become a lawyer like Parry Mason
Julie could be heard often saying Me too!
Julie and Claudette being much younger did their best to keep up
And seemed to be magnates for to flying bats and balls.
Most of the boys would disappear when the little girls started heading went home crying.
We played base ball, horsed around, Red Rover, wrestling on the front lawn with the double Dutch skipping rope stretched around 4 pegs to make the wrestling ring. Julie often ricocheting into someone.
After a long day of school, work then partying Kelly would appear at my bedroom door the next morning saying 'It's 8 o'clock there is work to do!
Kelly was always there when help was needed.
He would have all the correct tools and would know just what had to be done.
He helped move me from home to school, school to home
home to school, school to home
home to school, school to home
Then from
home to home
And even appeared when I moved my office
I recall kelly and Jean coming to move one of our townhouses and with Bill-moving our entire home while I was at a courthouse Christmas party
I do not recall asking him to help. He just knew and would be there
I worried about how to move my antique desk without damaging it and Kelly appeared with a contraption called a tape gun and padding and within seconds it seemed the job was done
Kelly had an amazing sense of duty.
He was fastidious about safety
He tried to in-still it in all of us the importance of getting the job done and doing it right
My husband Bill and Jean were two of his best students
I recall, as a teenager being in a bar on the North Service Road near where the health club is now, sitting at a big round table with a bunch of friends and Kelly appeared and tapped me on my shoulder to tell me a guy named, Bill was looking for me and that he was outside.
How did Kelly know how to find me?
Kelly liked Bill and had decided I should be with him despite the fact that he had told me many times before that I should only date a guy who drove a nice car!
He and Bill became very good friends
Kelly was a good listener
He was so sweet. Beet red when Aaron explained things while we played Cards Against Humanity at a ski doo weekend at the cottage
Kelly was smart
Recently he and Jeff were bopping around the cottages and popped into Nan’s cottage while Nan and I were playing Canadian Trivia. They took us on in a game. Kelly knew all the answers!
He was a soldier,never complained even when battling the worst disease, he smiled and carried on
Kelly put everyone ahead of himself
Kelly is an angel

I am so sorry to hear about your loss, I didn't run into Kelly that many times frankly, but I must say this, he just impressed me as being one of the lightest, brightest, kindest people-an absolute gentleman. I am so sorry for you. I have no idea what to say. He struck me as being an outstanding person, light, bright and everything that is nice to meet in people. My sincerest condolences to your Mom. I am so sorry. Keep the faith. I am so sorry. To all of you, my deepest condolences.

Dear Johnson family, I am so saddened to hear of the passing of Kelly. He will be missed by so many, including my family. On weekends in South River, when I would cross paths with him at his family cottage, I remember him to be a kind soul, and a great listener. We will miss his bright smile and story telling around the bonfires. May you all find your way through this difficult time. From the Cuillerier Family

When Kelly was a baby he, Kevin and Janice were living in Nova Scotia and were my real live dolls that as a twelve year old I was able to hug , tickle and feed . Kelly always had a big smile and that warm and quick to smile always remained with him . Kelly loved his family and extended family so he would often drop in if he was in the neighborhood. I loved his “east coast “ idea of dropping in out of the blue !
Kelly always ready to have fun and Roger and I will treasure the good time we had in 2020 when he and his Mom spent a couple of days with us in Florida. Out for a sail in the Gulf and sunset with a few beers were special times we will remember and hold dear to our hearts .
He has left us far too soon and we will miss him terribly but he will never be forgotten! ! Our condolences to Jean, Michael, Luke and Coleena !
Much love Aunt Shirl and Uncle Roger

Dear Jean, Michael, Luke and Colena;
It is with heartfelt sorrow I am sending you all a note to say how deeply I feel your sadness in the passing of Kelly.
You have all been such a Godsend in everything you did for Kelly, giving him the loving care he deserved.
You have brought him pride and happiness when talking of all of your successes as children, growing up into wonderful hard working adults.
As a young couple, Bill and I loved coming up and staying on the pull out couch in the basement at your house. We loved being woken up by you guys jumping on us! We always felt like slouches because we would wake up to Jean who had already worked in the garden, Kelly was already making bacon and both on their 3rd coffees! You guys were always making the best of the day.
We loved spending our Halloweens, Christmases and Easter hunts, seeing happiness through your little eyes. I remember how Luke would sequester me away to have alone time to tell me stories, Michael showing me his baseball and basketball skills and Colena showing her love of animals by introducing me to a new pet! I loved all our walks and adventures in your back acreage and walks at the grange and the pinnacle. We even adopted in our family, the floor party where we get blankets and pillows and watch our favourite movies together!
You have all had such an impact on our lives and Kelly was so proud of the life you created together in the raising of your beautiful children. We cherish you all.
Kelly just loved family and would find a way to see everyone and bring meaning to our lives with his quiet presence.
I will always love my big brother for his examples he set for the importance of hard work, getting an education, safety, and saving for a rainy day.
My favourite memories are all of the things Kelly would do for me to make me feel like his favourite sister! When he found out Mom was pregnant with me, at the young age of 11, he saved up all of his paper route money to buy me a diaper pail! The special things he did for me continued! He took my kindergarten friends and I, to get McDonald's hamburgers-which was the biggest deal ever! He bought me my first and only dirt bike at the age of 10 and made sure I knew all of the safety measures of all the dangerous sports we did, like snowmobiling and downhill skiing! Kelly included me in so many of his fun adventures with friends and never made me feel like a bothersome younger sister. Kelly loved concerts and took me to my favourite ones- Cyndi Lauper, The Bangles, Men at Work and INXS as a young teenager!
Kelly's memory will live on in the many friends and family he took for the first time on dirt bikes and taught them how to waterski at the cottage. Kelly taught me how to drive in his prized possession Camaro Z28, on the Black River Road in Nova Scotia at the age of 12. I still can't believe he trusted me, I am not sure if I would have been so trusting! I carried that tradition forward and taught Will to drive on the same road! When I got my own paper route, so I could save for rollerskates, Kelly chipped in half, because I wouldn't have had enough until winter! My first year at overnight camp, I called home because I wanted to stay another week and once again, Kelly was there to pay for this, spoiling me again!
Kelly was a jack of all trades. He could build or fix anything. From his fancy stool and bedside table in high school, to the loft and full addition at the cottage. I remember he got a nail in his foot doing this! Kelly made the best bonfires to share with friends and family and enjoyed spending time kayaking and canoeing at the cottage. I just love how Kelly always smiled at everyone and greeted them with a hello and you always felt so welcome in his presence.
Kelly was such a kind, thoughtful and gentle person and I know the example he set for us all will carry on in your hearts and future children. I am confident that he is up in heaven having one big party with his twin Kevin, Dad, and all the close family who passed before who helped shape the wonderful man he became.
Thank you for bringing such happiness to his life and for everything you have done right up to his final moments. I will miss my big brother dearly.
Love you all.
Allyson, Bill, Will and Addy

I grew up as Julie's best friend . My brothers David and Peter were always with Kelly and Kevin. The Johnsons were my second home .
Kelly was always a kind and sweet person . And I remember our childhood with found memories.
I am so sorry for Kelly s passing it saddens my heart ❤️
To all my loving Johnson family I send my deepest sympathy and my love
I recall Julie and I many times being tricked by the four boys Kelly Kevin. Peter and Dave the time walking home they jumped out a tree and scared us silly . But with all the tricks was a lot of big brothers protection and caring.
Kelly had a true heart ❤️ and u recall his laughter mostly after tricking Julie and I .
With all my love to the family . May Kelly always be on your hearts and memories.

Kelly will be remembered for his wide perspective of life, love and all the beauty that was to be experienced in his daily life, while sharing with others.
Kelly had strong, deep rooted family values.
His nature was strong when nurturing his loved ones.
Growing up, Kelly took pride in being the older brother responsible and caring for his sisters. Kelly would save his money in order to purchase tickets and take his sisters to concerts at the CNE.
We shared many fond and fun memories at our cottage as teenagers. Night snowmobiling, skating on the cottage lake, tobogganing, riding our ATV's and hiking deep into the woods and getting lost, but Kelly would always find our way back home safely.
Kelly would take on any task asked of him. He would take great pride in proper completion with care to detail.
Kelly was always a good son to Mom and when Dad passed, he would visit her often, taking care of her and her home by doing the jobs that needed tending to. It was Kelly's nature to care for all his family and felt responsible for making sure we were all safe!
It does give me great comfort in knowing that our father and Kelly's twin brother, Kevin and many others that have passed before are greeting Kelly with welcoming arms full of love!
I will dearly miss my beloved brother, Kelly

I have many fond memories of Kelly that go back about 28 years.
I was lucky enough to have gained a brother inlaw and a friend.
When I was out of work, it was Kelly who lined me up with my first automotive job.
Our work paths crossed frequently in the early days. We would plan our work trips around when we would both be in the Windsor/Detroit area. Then enjoy a good meal and some laughs.
We also spent alot of time at the family cottage, a place he loved to be. Although with Kelly, I think he enjoyed maintaining the property as much as the leisure part.
When our other Brother inlaw Bill started hosting the famous "boys snowmobile weekends" Kelly was always first, to lead the pack of snowmobiles through the trails, first to help dig someone out, first to load wood on the fire, and first to do dishes.
He was the kind of person you could count on to do anything needed at anytime to help.
Anyone who met him would know this quality immediately. You hear about people who would give thier shirts of thier backs. If that were true, Kelly would have no shirts left.
Last fall, as Kelly's health was starting to slow him down, I was able to get him out for a drive. As Kelly has always been a car guy, I picked him up in my corvette, we took the roof off, turned up the classic rock music and drove to Burlington at slightly above the speed limit. I took a picture of Kelly with some cool wheels. We met his friend John for lunch and got back before dark.
I think we both enjoyed the day equally.
Kelly will be missed by all who were lucky enough to know him.
He always set a great example of what a friend, dad, husband, brother should be.
Miss you bro!!

What a lovely obituary. I particularly liked the comment about the cleanest and most loved truck!
Kelly was such a lovely man. Whenever I saw him, he was always smiling, always happy, and had a positive outlook on life. Love and kindness eminated from his face ... it was easy to be happy in his presence.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm sure his reunion with his Father and brother was joyous but it's hard for those left behind.

My deepest condolences to all the family. When I think of Kelly, I think of his infectious smile and gentle nature. Some of my fondest memories are of your annual visits to River John in the summer! He will be dearly missed but heaven has certainty gained an angel.

Kelly you were one of a kind . You and Jean were some of the first people we met when we moved to Alton all those many years ago . I will forever cherish the childhood days spent with you and Jean before your own kids were born , skating at gage park , apple picking and snowmobile rides in the field , as we grew up you welcomed my kids into your life and treated them the same as you did us growing up always a smiling face willing to talk your ear off . You sure will be missed . Thank you for always being such a good friend and of corse family to us . I’m sure my mom and dad were waiting with open arms . Until we meet again kelly rest easy
