Michael Kevin Kelly

Michael Kevin Kelly of Deer Lodge, Montana, formerly of Cullman, Alabama, passed away on May 11, 2026, in Deer Lodge, Montana. He was 70 years old.

Mike was born on August 12, 1955, in Augusta, Georgia, to Robert Kelly and Anna Rose Branch Kelly. Known affectionately as “Mike” or “Kello” by those who truly knew and loved him, he lived a life deeply rooted in music, family, and friendship.

Music was more than a passion for Mike — it was who he was. Whether he was performing on stage with lifelong friends or working in his beloved music store, he found joy in sharing music with others. He fulfilled a lifelong dream when he opened Montana Music Company in downtown Deer Lodge, where he created a place for musicians and music lovers alike to gather. A gifted bass guitarist, Mike came alive on stage, where his talent and love for performing could truly be seen.

Above all else, Mike’s greatest pride and joy was his family. He loved deeply and was most proud of his children and the family he helped build.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert Kelly and Anna Rose Branch Kelly.

Mike is survived by his loving wife of 33 years, Nancy “Becky” Kelly; his children, Randy (Nancy) Culbreath, Stephanie Culbreath, Harmony Kelly (Nicky), Patrick (Janet) Kelly, and Carrie (Celeste) Keltinez; his grandchildren, Matea’, Tylie, Trevor, Nathan, Caleb, Luke, Levi, Khloe, Lola, Lennox, Emmett, Rowan, and Ezra; and his great-grandchildren, Swayze, Rhett, Nylie, Abilene, and Milah.

He is also survived by his siblings, Tony (Kathrean)Kelly, Tim (Donna) Kelly, and Collette (Dan) Short, along with a host of nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends. Mike will be remembered for his love of music, his larger-than-life spirit, and the unwavering love he had for his family and friends. His memory will continue to live on through the music he shared and the lives he touched.

Memorial services will be held at the following locations and times: Sunday, May 17, 2026 Elks Lodge Deer Lodge, Montana 4:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Sunday, June 7, 2026 Blair Congregational Methodist Church Battleground, Alabama 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.

Charles Earl Haeffner

Charles “Charlie” “Chuck” “Charlie Osco”Haeffner, 92

June 10, 1933-May 10, 2026

Charles Earl Haeffner passed away at Intermountain Health in Butte, MT on May 10, 2026. Charles was born in Fargo, North Dakota on June 10, 1933 to Earl and Agnes Haeffner and was the younger of two children. Though he acquired polio at the age of 2 and spent 9 months in the hospital, he never let it slow him down. He was full of life and character, quick witted and a joy to be around. He always had a comment or a joke ready at the right time, in the right moment.

Charlie served in the US Navy as a corpsman, and then returned home to Fargo to finish his pharmacy degree at NDSU (a forever NDSU fan). Charlie married his love, Yvonne Waidt on January 17, 1959, and their journey began in Kankakee, Illinois with Osco Drug. From there they moved to Kewanee, Illinois, then Marion, Indiana. In 1967 Charlie brought the first Osco Drug to Montana-in Anaconda, where he worked as the manager for 28 years before retiring in 1995. His story continued as he then helped his son Scott in his insurance agency on occasion. Charlie served on many local boards over the years: School board, Anaconda Chamber of Commerce, Anaconda-Deer Lodge County Reclamation Advocates, Copper Village Museum and Art Center and was a member of the Elks. He was also a Continuing Education Instructor with the MT Board of Pharmacy.

Charlie enjoyed skiing, hunting and motorcycle riding with his boys, but his fondest memories were spending every summer vacation at Pelican Lake in Minnesota. He would pack up the family, leave right after work and drive straight through (all night) 925 miles to Fargo, ND to be with family at the lake for two to three weeks.

Charlie was preceded in death by his beloved wife of 59 years, Vonnie, his parents Earl and Agnes, his brother and sister-in-law Fred and Marlene “Sis”, sister-in-law Beverly Lein and nephew Steve Rawley. He is survived by his two sons: Charlie (Mara) and Scott (Georgann); Grandchildren: Colton, Carlie and August; Niece: Robin Matos (Miguel) and family, Nephews: Guy Haeffner (Tina), Craig Rawley (Debbie) and families; and a multitude of friends too numerous to count.

Funeral Services will be held at the Longfellow Finnegan Funeral Home in Anaconda on Saturday, June 6, 2026 at 11 a.m. Memorials may be made to a charity of your choice.

Longfellow Finnegan Riddle Funeral Home and Crematory have been privileged to care for Charles and his family.

Robert Danny Hay

Robert “Bob” “Bobcat” Danny Hay died April 25, 2026 due to complications following an accidental fall some three weeks prior. He was 73 years old.

Bob was born August 1, 1952 in Tarrant County (Fort Worth), Texas, the son of Robert Harold Hay and Eula Mae (Nowell) Hay.

Bob grew up on his father’s ranch. He joined the Marines when he was young enough that his father had to co-sign his enlistment papers, and he served in combat in Viet Nam, where he was wounded. When he came back home, he worked many years in law enforcement in Texas. He eventually moved to Montana and had a saddle making business for several years. When his eyesight failed, apparently due to agent orange exposure in Viet Nam, he lived in various places before settling in Anaconda where he lived for many years until his passing.

Bob consistently professed his faith in his Lord Jesus Christ and enjoyed going to church when his health would allow it. Bob liked to joke that, “I spell my name backwards from how other people spell it!” but he was “Bobcat” to many or most of his friends. Bobcat spent his days “listening to my pastors on tv,” listening to country music and just loving on his two beloved canine buddies and guide dogs, Yankee and Sarge.

Bob was preceded in death by his parents and many of his veteran buddies. He is survived by his daughter, Charlene (Gary) Cochran, his son, Nathan Hay, 5 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren, and by his sister, Penne Ash, and his brother, John Hay.

Bobcat always loved our Montana mountains and has requested that his ashes be spread “on the mountain.”

Condolences and farewells may be posted to longfellowfinneganriddle.com.

Longfellow Finnegan Riddle Funeral Home and Crematory have been privileged to care for Robert and his family.
