KAVANAGH, Kelly Ann Kavanagh

Kelly Ann Kavanagh, 56, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, December 6, 2025, with family by her side at WRHN @ Queen’s Blvd (formerly St. Mary’s Hospital) in Kitchener, ON.

She was born to the late Elizabeth and Jack Kavanagh on January 28, 1969, in Bell Island, NL.

Kelly is survived by her two daughters Sarah Kavanagh and Holly Bodnar (Michael). She is also survived by her granddaughter Katie Bodnar, brothers Paul Kavanagh (Mary), Scott Kavanagh (Brenda) and Dale Kavanagh (Tracey), and sister Bonnie Woodford, along with many nieces, nephews and friends.
Predeceased by her brothers John, Gary and Mike, mother Beth and father Jack.

Kelly was known for her sense of humour, great taste in music, fun-loving nature and generosity. Even in death she was able to give an amazing final example of this by donating her organs to families in need, just before Christmas, her favourite holiday which she always made extra special.

There will not be a formal funeral, however, there will be a celebration of life hosted by her daughters in late January in Kitchener-Waterloo. Please contact the family for more details.

In lieu of flowers, condolences for the family or donations to the KW Humane Society would be appreciated and may be arranged through www.erbgood.com.
