Kelly James Corcoran, aged 60, of Oswego, Illinois, passed away peacefully at home on December 30, 2024. Born on July 21, 1964, in Oak Park, Illinois, Kelly was the youngest son of the late William "Corky" and June Corcoran of Wheaton, Illinois.

Kelly was a devoted husband to Tracy (Coniglio) Corcoran, with whom he shared 31 wonderful years of marriage. Together, they built a loving family, raising four children: Allison, Patrick, Hailey, and Kevin Corcoran, who will continue to honor his legacy with love and laughter.

Kelly was a beloved sibling to Ann Corcoran, Mike (Mary) Corcoran, Corlene (Ron) Dulceak, and Laurie Corcoran. He is also remembered fondly by many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. Preceding him in death were his father, William "Corky" Corcoran; his mother, June Corcoran; and his brothers, Patrick and Casey Corcoran.

Kelly retired in October 2023 after 40 years in the construction industry. He was a proud and dedicated member of the Local 673 Teamsters Union. Kelly had a strong work ethic and put forth one hundred percent of himself in everything he did, whether it was helping coworkers on the job or family with projects around the house.

Known affectionately as "Coach," Kelly spent many years volunteering his time coaching soccer for all four of his children, leaving a lasting impact on young athletes and their families. In his younger years, Kelly loved playing soccer, wrestling and gymnastics. He was a devoted lifelong fan of the Chicago Bears and the Chicago Blackhawks.

Above all, Kelly will be remembered for his sense of humor and fun-loving personality. He brought smiles and laughter to every room he entered and was a constant source of amusement for his family and friends.
