It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of Joe Kelly of Denham Springs, Louisiana. Joe was an amazing friend to the Freedom Pens Project. This was his true passion for 12 years until health issues keep him away from the pen turning that he loved. He was an amazing fundraiser, cheerleader, an exceptional pen turner and a great friend. He was very active with the Bayou Woodturners and helped to set up many Freedom Pen turn-a-thons. He loved to talk about the program and recruited many pen turners who have been with the program over the last 14 years. He will be truly missed.
Please keep Joe's wife, Irmalene and the rest of his family in your prayers.
