Lisa, Chelsey, and Morgan, I am so very sorry for your loss, my heart just breaks for you all. I have known you guys forever it seems. Every time I would see Kerry, and ask about you all, he would always smile and his eyes would just light up, he loved his family and it showed.

I will forever miss walking into work and seeing Kerry’s bright smile and listening to him tell me if we weren’t busy by 10 o’clock he’d be to town to bust out street lights just like Ernest T…..May the happy memories help you find comfort in the difficult days to come and love to you all !

To Lisa and Jerry,
So sorry for the loss of Kerry. No words can express what you are dealing with right now. Just going through this with my dad just know that each day the Lord will carry you through along with family and friends. So lean on them and let them just be there for you even when you don’t think it will help. Just some one listening to you talk about your love for Kerry, the times you spent together, and the memories you made will heal your heart slowly. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
Dear Reese family members, we are so sad to learn of the loss of your dear family member. Our hearts go out to all of you and we would like to express our sincere sympathy. Kerry will be so missed by everyone that has had the pleasure to know him.
