My father
Bob Kelly is a living legend and always left a strong wake
in his path. Sometimes his frantic, manic driven personality
could be best described as affectionately acerbic. Dad's legacy will be his talent and
his kindness and the love of wig making and his make-up
company. He ran back and forth and I realized watching as
only a child does, it was as if there was a mission not a
method to his madness. It was this energy and passion that
made him successful. When going to work I had to run to keep
up with his legs. As he took my hand and skipped and sang,
we would run down West 46th and Broadway all was well and
exciting. We would pass by the Lunt Fontaine and Noel
Coward theatres he'd tell me about them and all the people
that the he made-up and put wigs on.

THIS FORUM IS STILL
FUNCTIONAL in case my fellow brothers and sisters of
Local 798 need a place to discuss the direction the
local is headed. It would behoove the average member to
start paying attention to what's going on with the
local's Executive Board and it's administration of our
office, pension and welfare fund, health coverage,
contract negotiations and Local 798's impact on our
professional and personal lives.

Local 798 loses a leader, an artist, a

would steal from her union brothers and
sisters... and a good friend, Kelly
