RIP Cousin Kerry I’m so glad we were able to share some of our frequent reminiscing laughs a few weeks back. I’m sure gonna miss our calls. When you get caught up with your Mom & Dad please say Hi for me and thanks again to the three of you for generating some of the best lifelong memories ever! Dan
Rest in peace Cousin. I have so many fond memories of coming to Illinois as a kid seeing all my farmer aunt, uncles, and cousins especially your Dad and Mom. When our kids were older, they always enjoyed going to your farm and seeing the animals, big equipment, riding the 4 wheelers with Shannon and Jason. Then there was watching Jason and his race car. Kerry, you were one of a kind, a great cousin and friend. Rest now in eternal peace.
Remember your Father working and serving in all the community organizations. Prayers to the family.
So sorry for your loss. Your all in my thoughts and prayers
