ALBANY- Grace I Kelly (Osborn), 82, passed away peacefully with her family by her side on October 25, 2016. She was a resident of the Daughters of Sarah Nursing Home, Blue wing, for 8 years and the family would like to express their gratitude to the staff for their care of Grace.
Grace was born May 26, 1934 to the late Grace &William Osborn of Latham.
Also, preceding her in death was her brother William Osborn Jr. and grandson Bradd Kelly.
Grace is survived by her sons, Michael (Wendy) Kelly of Waterford, and Patrick Kelly of Selkirk; daughter, Barbara (Jeff) Tedesco of Glenmont; Step-grandchildren, Ryan and Dylon Hanehan; brother, Ronald (Roberta) Osborn of Delmar; sister-in-law, Nan Osborn of Rexford; 4 grandchildren: Heather Tremblay-Croteau, Brandon, Ryan and Tara Black; step granddaughters Kerri (Kris) Ferrari and Amy Tedesco, plus several other extended family members.
Grace was a very kind and caring mother to Mike, Pat and Barb, and wife to Robert Kelly (1955 -1975), but sadly we lost her to Mental Illness a long time ago. That was her lifelong struggle, unfortunately, and sometimes kept her from all who loved her.
