Kelly was a fixture on the sidelines at countless field hockey, soccer and ice hockey games. She served as a coach and the director of Mt. Laurel field hockey feeder program. She loved spending time in Ocean City and Siesta Key, Fla. Kelly is survived by her husband, Robert A. Allen, MD; her four children, Rachel, Sarah, Rebecca and Matthew; her mother, Mary Joan Wyatt (Stephen Gruszkowski); her sister, Sherry Scott and her husband, Kevin; her niece, Cassidy Scott, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law, Dr. Herbert B.
