Ivan Kellogg

Ivan Jay Kellogg, age 80 of Little Egg Harbor, NJ died peacefully and painlessly in his slepp after a brief illness on May 28, 2018.  Ivan was born in Orange, NJ to Ivan L. Kellogg and Ruth Kellogg (nee Williams).
Ivan served in the US Army from 1959 to 1963 in Wurzburg, Germany.  He loved Germany and toured it extensively.  Back in the states, Ivan joined the Army National Guard, serving as armorer and achieving the rank of Staff Sergeant.  He later transferred to the Army Reserve at Camp Kilmer where he served as senior armorer in charge.
In his civilian life, Ivan worked as a machinist with Mann-Roland Industries in Middlesex, NJ for 28 years.  Always mechanically inclined, he loved old cars, and working at his late frind John Hoffman's machine shop.  Ivan also had a great love of animals and provided a happy home to many dogs and cats over the years.
