Kelly Z. Claar Jr., 25, of Lititz, entered into the more immediate presence of the Lord on Wednesday, Nov. 22, 2017, and now rests in eternal peace.

A former United States Marine who served with pride and distinction, Kelly was a 2010 graduate of Warwick High School, and a life member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Lititz Springs Post 1463. He was employed by KLB Masonry, Manheim, as a mason tender.

Kelly is survived by his loving family, mother and stepfather: Michele and Kirk Toburen; brother: LCpl Taylor Claar USMC, and wife Kristen; sisters: Brandie and Cortnie Peters; stepbrother: Tyler Toburen and wife, Tiffany; grandparents: Nelson and Janet Peters; step-grandparents: Charles and Carol Toburen; nephew: Jaxon Peters; and niece: Taryn Toburen.

A private family service will be held. Friends are invited to call upon the family at Grace Church, 501 W. Lincoln Ave., Lititz, on Thursday. Nov. 30, from 4:30 to 6 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, the family invites those who wish to memorialize Kelly and his service to our nation to make a contribution to The Veterans Honor Park of Lancaster County, 315 Clay Road, Lititz, PA 17543.

To leave the family a condolence, visit SnyderFuneralHome.com. Charles Snyder Funeral Home, Lititz, was entrusted with the arrangements.

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. – Psalm 34:18
