My thoughts are with the family.
Oh, I'm sorry for this. Kerry painted for me when I first bought an older home back in 2004. He did a great job and was honest and kind. Peace to the family.
Love you Kerry. You were a second Dad to me for many years. Even in your struggles in the past few months you always had a way to make others smile and laugh. You will always be missed but never forgotten! The world is a better place because of people like you. Peace my friend and say hi to mom for me.
Kerry was a kind and generous man, I will never forget the many stories that you told during Sunday meals. My sincere condolences to all of his family.
