Dallas Leon Kellis was 76 when he died at his Aberdeen, North Carolina, home on July 20, 2016. A longtime machine operator at JP Stevens and a member of Flint Hill Baptist Church in Robbins, he enjoyed working outdoors and caring for his home and lawn.

Kellis was found inside his residence with two gunshot wounds. His wife, 81-year-old Margaret Francis Kellis, called 911 and gave a rambling account, saying she had gone to McDonald’s to get her husband a ham sandwich and found him unresponsive when she returned. Margaret Kellis was arrested and charged with one count of felony murder and one count of felony forgery and uttering; she was held in the Moore County Detention Center under no bond, with a first court appearance scheduled for November 7 in Moore County Superior Court.

This case drew national attention because of the circumstances and the ages involved. If anyone knew Dallas, his routines, health, or what happened that day, please share information with investigators.
