Kerry Lyn Bacchi, 41, of Watertown, Wisconsin, passed away on September 16, 2010 at the Watertown Regional Medical Center, following a courageous two year battle with cancer. A memorial service was held at St. Henry Catholic Church in Watertown. Kerry was born on January 4, 1969 to Charles and Gail Pfister of Gridley. She attended local schools and was a 1987 Gridley High School graduate. She was active in Sunday school and youth group at the Gridley Presbyterian church. Kerry enjoyed many years of softball, from T-ball through her high school years. She also played high school tennis, achieving All-league for doubles tennis with her sister, Kristin. After earning her college credits in Early Childhood Education, she worked in that field in the Sacramento area. Kerry married Michael Bacchi in 1994, and they created a comfortable and happy home in Wisconsin for their three children. The family supported many activities around school and sport. Mostly a stay-at-home mom, she was proud of her daily playground monitor job at St. Henry Catholic School and was a beloved and popular figure to all the students.
