Kelly L. Early

Kelly Lynn Early, age 45, of Englewood, passed away on October 27, 2021. Kelly was born on January 22, 1976 to Joseph III and Linda Hulina in Joliet, Illinois. Kelly graduated from Wright State University with a Bachelor's of Fine Arts and enjoyed painting and sculpting with clay, even if the clay didn't always do what she wanted it to. She also enjoyed being a gardener, watching the flowers grow and blossom. She was an amazing cook, and she always made a delicious apple-rosemary bread during the holidays. In addition to her creative and artistic talents, she was a wonderful and loving mother and doting grandmother. Her heart was full of kindness and love, and the beauty of her soul is reflected by her loving family.

Kelly's memory will be cherished by her beloved husband of 10 years, Clifton Early; her beautiful children, Kelsey (Ryan) Smith, Logan Williams, Lilly Early and Daisy Early; grandchildren, Elliot and Adrian Smith; her loving parents, Joseph III and Linda Hulina; her brothers, Joseph John IV Hulina, William Isaac (Anna) Hulina, and Daniel Aaron (Julie Hulina); aunts, Ellie Cabay, Joan Berry and Julie Lawlor; uncles, Ray Hulina, Robert Nall and John Nall; and many nieces, nephews, family and friends. She will be deeply missed by all that knew and loved her.

A visitation will be held from 3:00pm to 5:00pm on Wednesday, November 3, 2021 at Newcomer North Chapel, 4104 Needmore Road, Dayton, where a funeral service will begin at 5:00pm.
