Kerry Sexton Dicke

My thoughts and prayers are with your family at such a difficult time. My memories of Kerry date way back to my elementary school years in New Bremen and my friendhip with Anastasia, who we all knew as "Stacey". What a kind and generous woman full of energy and love. I can remember vividly our girl scout meetings at her house..what a great mother and beautiful woman!

Kerry and I have been friends since childhood. She has always been there for me. I will miss her so much. I had the honor to be with her after surgery and with her family after her death. Her children are like mine, and of course Linda too. I loved her like a sister and she will be missed everyday.

Kerry was always "Aunt Kerry and Uncle Dane" to me, The girls were always my "cousins", and Nana was always my grandmother. I never knew any different. Although it has been many years since I've been there, we spent lots of times in Ohio. My mother is truly blessed to have had a friend for life. For many years my moms wedding picture of she and Kerry hung in my grandparents bathroom. Now it sits in the drawer but it always reminds me how lucky they were to be friends... Even all these years later. Im so very glad my mother and i got to be a part of the spreading of some ashes with the family. Kerry will be truly missed... And there will be lots of kitties needing a home! So go adopt a kitty in Kerry's honor! She would love that!

Even though I was there with her loved ones that fateful time in Texas, I am still struggling to believe she is really gone. I was so blessed to have her as my second mother and dearest of friends. My children desperately miss their "Gaga" and request bedtime stories about her nightly. I must admit that she has given me some incredible material with which to work. I can only attempt to express the dramatic flare and genuine feeling she had when she was with them. Thank you Kerry for all of the love, time and unwavering care you always bestowed upon me, Michael and the children. We miss you.

My thoughts and prayers are with your famly. Kerry was a charismatic & giving person who had a passion for life and will be sadly missed. It was a privilege to know her. I'm sure she'll be watching over her children from heaven.
