Larry Paul Kelly

Larry Paul Kelly, 66, of Sulphur, was born June 4, 1957 in Bakersfi eld, California and went home to the Lord on February 10, 2024. Larry had a 30-year career as a long-haul truck driver that took him all across the United States. During his career, he received numerous accommodations and was known to all on the CB Radio as “Waawho.” Larry retired from long-haul trucking but couldn’t stay away from the truck and continued to drive for Pavers Inc. out of Davis until his full retirement.

Larry had a great love for his family and, most importantly, the Lord. He was as ornery as they come and loved with his whole heart. Larry was always willing to help anyone at any time and never met a stranger. His kids and grandkids were the center of his universe, and he lit up anytime they were near.

When he wasn’t working, you could find Larry fishing, camping, and traveling with his family. He had a talent and passion for cooking, specifically smoking and barbecuing, which he passed on to his son and son-in-law. Larry was also passionate about caring for his church’s food box, which he maintained daily. He took great pride in helping his community through the church.

Larry is survived by his wife, Debra Kelly of the home; son, David Kelly and wife Lois of Bakersfield, California; daughters, Misty Raymo and husband Ryan of Sulphur, Crystal Jenkins of Davis; grandchildren, Tiffany Kelly, Jaycen Kelly, Derek Shively, Launa Raymo, Karolina Kelly, Hayden Raymo, David Jenkins Jr, Kylee Jenkins; great-grandchildren: Greyson Kelly and Noah Rodriguez; sisters, Linda Mitchell and husband Joe of Sulphur and Carol Ann Kelly of California; numerous nieces, nephews, and friends.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Clarence and Faye Danley; mother, Loretta Campbell; and brother, Clarence “Butch” Kelly.

Larry attended the Church of Christ in Sulphur, Oklahoma, where he gave his life to the Lord in February of 2023.
