Kelly Ann
Daniell
Dec 4, 1969 — May 7, 2026
Kelly Ann Daniell was born on December 4, 1969, in Riverhead, New York, to Alexander and Theresa Daniell. When she was a teenager, she moved with her parents to Little Falls, New York. During the late 1990s, Kelly met the love of her life, TJ, and in 1999, they welcomed the first of three daughters.
Kelly was well known for her kind and generous heart. She was the first person to help those in need. She cared deeply for those around her, and helping others was simply who she was. She was affectionately known as "Mamma Kelly," reflecting the love, comfort, and guidance she gave so freely. Kelly was spontaneous, adventurous, and full of life. Always living life on her terms, you never knew what she was going to say, what she was going to do, or where she might end up next. She was unforgettable. To know her was to truly love her.
Known for her love of riding her Harley and embracing the open road with TJ by her side, she carried a fearless spirit that inspired those around her. She always brought warmth and energy wherever she went and was, without a doubt, the life of every gathering. Her laugh was boisterous and contagious, making it impossible not to laugh along with her.
Above all else, she was a devoted mother to her three daughters. Whether it was buying a white lab coat with Dr. Molly embroidered on it when Molly expressed her desire to become a doctor, daily phone calls, or cheering from the sidelines at every sporting event, Kelly was their biggest fan and cheerleader. She constantly strived to make all their dreams come true and provided endless love, support, and encouragement. Kelly's love for her girls was unconditional and unwavering. She was extremely proud of the women they became.
Sadly, Kelly was taken from her family along with her beloved mother, Terry Daniell, and was pre-deceased by her father, Alexander Daniell, and her uncle, Michael Daniell. She is survived by her husband, TJ Podlas, her daughters Amanda Harris (Andrew), Molly Podlas, and Andy-Lynn Podlas, her nephew Gavin Daniell, who held a special place in her heart, her siblings, several nieces and nephews, and countless friends. Kelly's presence was larger than life, and the memories she created with those she loved will be cherished forever.
Though her passing leaves an unimaginable void, her spirit will continue to live on in the lives she touched, the love she gave, and the freedom she embraced every day. May she ride free and rest in peace.
