John "Jack" Edward Kelleher Iv

Jack Kelleher, 16, passed away on Wednesday January 17, 2018 after a 13 month courageous battle with brain cancer. He fought until the very end. Jack was born on June 4, 2001 and made John Edward Kelleher III and Kristen Runkel Kelleher proud parents. He was also a wonderful big brother and best friend to William David Kelleher and Elizabeth Anne Kelleher.

He was a wonderful grandson to John and Lois Kelleher of Amesbury, Massachusetts and David and Marcia Runkel of Carmel, Indiana and made Glenn Kelleher of Hampton, New Hampshire and JR Runkel of Peoria, Illinois both uncles. Last but not least, he had two special cousins in Drew and Mason Runkel.

Jack was a sophomore at Westfield High School and swam on the high school swim team. This past summer Jack was a swim coach for Village Farms Swim Club and enjoyed every minute of it. He was always happy being in a pool, fishing in the back yard or just hanging out in the driveway playing basketball. Jack loved his family and his home.
