A REMARKABLE WOMAN Of course I’m talking about our own FERN KELLY. Fern was born in Erie, Pennsylvania in January 1925. After graduation from there she went to Pharmacy School in Pittsburg. She met her husband while they were inschool there, but he took 2 years off to go into theNavy. They met up when he got home and got married. Her first job was in a pharmacy back in Erie. They moved to Stubenville, Ohio where they worked as Pharmacists and where their 2 children were born. Fern and her husband had many interests including traveling to other countries as well as in the U.S., being in local plays and musicals where her husband worked on many of the sets, square dancing, belonging to Friendship Force where they hosted and traveled to other countries. Something on her bucket list that she was able to do was to see where her Grandma was born in Poznam, Poland, which is a town with 7 houses.

Some of Fern’s talents are weaving which her Mother taught her and we have a sample of in the Narthex, and oil and water color painting (which are wonderful), Fern says she has pretty much done everything she has wanted to do and considers herself very fortunate. Fern is legally blind but says she doesn’t want to just sit and do nothing, so she goes to the YMCA 4 days a week where she does water exercises as well as use the exercise machines. Like I said, A Remarkable Woman.
