"The people of the North Country and I have lost a great leader and a friend. Chuck Kelly spent his career fighting for the people of St. Lawrence County as if each of them were a member of his family.
I had the privilege of working with him over the years on a host of projects and looked to him for advice and counsel. My sincerest sympathy to Therese, the children and the grandchildren during this difficult time."
