I just heard today of Kerrys passing. I had the good fortune to know him both personally and professionally. Growing up just two blocks away. I was able to help him in his racing career. I'll never forget all the trips to New York, sometimes only him, his Dad, and myself. Those were the days. Later, I was luckey enough to work for them at the Waterfront in Lake Winola. A great experience. Lost contact about 15 years ago, but always thought of him when talking about the "Good Years". Kerry was one of the good guys, doing it the old fashioned way. To Jamie and Earl, my best thoughts to you. He will be missed, but not forgotten.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family in this time of sadness. As a kid growing up in Levittown and attending Pennsbury, it was a thrill to watch Kerry(one of our guys) race at Flemington and Windsor back in the day. Godspeed, and rest in peace, Kerry.

I am very sorry to hear of the passing of Kerry Schloder. I never met Kerry, but he is one of the guys that I watched race at Flemington and East Windsor in the #K46 Valiant, Gremlin and others throughout the 70's that had such a big impact on me.
My condolences to the Schloder Family,
Joe Macfarlan and Family

It was a pleasure to know Kerry and to see him take care of Mom so well. He was full of life, laughing and joking a lot. He was taken to soon from Mom and his friends and family. As he continues on his journey to better places he will be watching over Mom.
