Dr. Kelly John Allen

Dr. Kelly John Allen, 64, of Brighton Twp., went to be with his Lord and Savior on April 16, 2026, after a courageous battle with esophageal cancer.

Born on July 8, 1961, in Hershey, PA, he was the son of the late John Kelly and Doris June Allen. Kelly was a 1979 graduate of Hershey High School. He went on to attend Penn State University and Lebanon Valley College. He pursued a career as a chiropractor and graduated valedictorian from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, with his Doctorate in Chiropractic. He worked as a chiropractor for 37 years, many times being recognized as the Best in the Valley. His knowledge and professionalism in chiropractic made him a mentor to other chiropractors, as well as a developer of his own chiropractic technology. Kelly treated his patients as though they were family. He put his heart into every case he treated.

Dr. Allen was a fan of Gary Larson Comics, Monty Python, Grover impressions, Star Wars, and classic rock music. He loved to share jokes with his patients; he always said it acted as a distraction because sometimes adjustments were not pleasant. He was creative, a dreamer, and, most of all, someone people were proud to call a friend.

Kelly will be sadly missed by his beloved wife of 42 years, Michele; children John Kelly (Jessica) Allen, Sabrina (Lt. Col. Bart) Winters, and Stephen Allen; his sister Stefanie (Michael) Mesich; and his grandchildren Jade, Scarlett, and Cecilia.

Friends will be received on Thursday, April 23, 2026, from 4pm until 7pm at Noll Funeral Home Inc., 333 Third Street, Beaver, PA 15009, where a funeral service will be held on Friday, April 24, 2026, at 11am. Online condolences may be shared at www.nollfuneral.com
