By Liam Parker |

A terrible car crash happened on Friday, killing a 37-year-old father of one. Matthew Kelly, also known as Matt Kelly, died in an automobile accident on March 10, 2023.

At about 12:05 in the morning, the event happened close to the Oso Parkway in the east. Early on Friday morning, the Jeep the Rancho Mission Viejo man was riding in crashed into a traffic post and a light pole. He was pronounced dead at the scene of the collision, according to the California Highway Patrol.

Initial investigations, according to sources, showed that the 37-year-old was driving a 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee east on Oso Parkway at a high rate of speed.

According to CHP Officer Rafael Reynoso, the Jeep turned to the right for an unclear reason, striking a moving traffic sign before crashing into a light pole. The victim passed away from his wounds at the scene of the collision, Rafael continued.

The family of Matt has created a Gofundme campaign to collect donations for his funeral. As mentioned:

Hello, I’m Amy Fisher. I was employed at Marsh McLennan Agency’s OC office. I’m writing this on behalf of Matt Kelly’s coworkers, who are like family to us. Last weekend’s devastating vehicle tragedy claimed Matt’s life.

As a Client Executive in our Business Insurance sector, Matt has spent the past eight years working with our MMA family in the Orange County office. He was a devoted father to his daughter Quinn, a loving husband to his wife April, and much more.

As a working family, it is our top concern to provide the finest support possible for Matt’s wife, daughter, and family following this campaign for everyone who wants to assist April and Quinn as they recover from this unexplainable incident.
