Wardell A. Kelley, 45, of Bellevue, passed away suddenly on Tuesday, October 1, 2019, in his home.

Born in Irondale, Alabama, he was the son of Melanie Kelley, of Beaver Falls and Andrew Steals, of Irondale, Alabama. At the age of 12, Wardell moved to Beaver Falls, where he was raised by his adoptive parents, Roosevelt and Patricia Cook.

Wardell was a graduate of Beaver Falls High School and was employed by Bank of New York Mellon for over 20 years. He loved football and was a diehard Alabama Crimson Tide Fan. He was a Division 1 College Referee, but still made time to serve our Youth Football Leagues, which he enjoyed most. He was also an avid golfer.
