Kelly Raschel Ringler Nguyen

Kelly Raschel Ringler Nguyen, 53, passed away peacefully on Monday, August 31, 2026.

Born in Reading, Kelly was the daughter of the late Thomas F. and Sharon J. (Keller) Ringler. She was the loving wife of Thao Nguyen, with whom she shared 28 years of marriage.

Kelly was a devoted mother to Holly Behm and Evan Nguyen, and raising her children was one of the greatest joys of her life. She cherished them and poured her heart into their education and growth. Kelly homeschooled Evan for most of his elementary years through high school, embracing the opportunity to nurture his curiosity and love of learning.

Education was a lifelong passion for Kelly. She graduated from Exeter Township Senior High School and went on to earn both her undergraduate degree and a Master's degree in Library Science from Kutztown University. She dedicated her career to helping students discover the joy of learning and served as a school librarian in Boyertown and Pottsgrove school districts.

Kelly will be remembered for her, warm disposition, positive energy, strength, and loving heart. Her family and friends will deeply miss her presence.

In addition to her parents, Kelly was predeceased by her uncle, Curtis Keller.
