Dalene Kelly was born and raised in Lake County before moving to Yuma, AZ for 20 years. While serving as treasurer of her UMC church in AZ, Dalene studied for and became a Certified Lay Minister. On returning to Ohio, she completed EOC requirements and transferred that title to Ohio. At PUMC, Dalene helps out with hospitality & fellowship, supports our congregational care team and funeral hospitality, and is a member of our United Women in Faith. Dalene has held many paid and volunteer positions through her life, and has even authored several books on creating bead flowers, which she loves to do in her spare time. She is now living in Painesville with her husband, Van Kelly, and their two fur babies.
Dalene is currently on a ministerial assignment at the Perry United Methodist Church but we remain grateful for her volunteer time time here throughout the week!
