Former President Clinton's stepfather, Richard Kelley, has died

Richard Kelley, 91; Stepfather of Ex-President Clinton
Associated Press
Thursday, February 1, 2007; Page B07


Richard Kelley, stepfather of former president Bill Clinton, died Jan. 31 at his home in Hot Springs, Ark. Kelley, 91, had been in declining health in recent weeks, and the former president visited him Monday.

Mr. Kelley met Clinton's mother at a horse-racing track, and they married in 1982. It was his second marriage and her fourth.

At the time, Clinton was preparing for a campaign to regain the Arkansas governor's office.

"I would come to love Dick Kelley and grow ever more grateful for the happiness he brought Mother, and me," Clinton wrote in his memoir, "My Life."

5. He and Mrs. Virginia Kelley were a perfect match
They were both fun-loving people who lived life to the fullest.

RIP, Mr. Kelley, and my deepest sympathies to former President Clinton, and the entire Clinton family.
