Addison Mae Kelly, 20, of Keokuk, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, June 12, 2026, at her home in Keokuk.

She was born February 15, 2006, in Keokuk, Iowa, the daughter of Shayne Kelly and Amy Harmon Kelly. She graduated from Keokuk High School with the Class of 2024.

More than anything, Addison loved being a mother to her daughter, Chicago. She cherished every moment she spent with her and loved watching her grow. Addison also enjoyed being an aunt and loved spending time babysitting and playing with her nephews. She had a unique personality and a love for Halloween, especially all things dark, spooky, and mysterious. She looked forward to the Halloween season each year and enjoyed scary movies, haunted attractions, and embracing the fun of all things eerie and unconventional. Addison was also fascinated by true crime and could often be found watching documentaries, crime series, and investigative programs, always intrigued by the mysteries and stories behind them. She enjoyed listening to R&B music and loved experimenting with different nail designs and eyelash styles, using them as a creative way to express her personality.
