Not sure what to say?

I love you sis, I think of you everyday

Sue, Trudy and family,

I was so very sorry to hear about Kerry's passing and send you all my deepest sympathy! I've enjoyed running into Kerry and you Sue over the years. Seems like the last time was a few years ago as I was having my hair cut and you two just happened to be walking by!

I found a sweet Christmas card from Kerry among my mom's...

three Hobson sisters

Kerry is my older sister, ever since I was little I looked up to her and wanted to be like her. That didn't change even as an adult.

Kerry was the second mother for our sons and was outstanding in that role and in raising Daniel. Her kindness and quiet strength will never be forgotten.

I went to grade-school & high school with Kerry, even had a grade school crush on her in 6th-7th grade. I think it was because she was smart AND nice. I last saw Kerry 2 years ago at our 40th HS reunion, she was helping a co-student in a wheelchair, I helped Kerry adjust the foot rests. My wife and I were so impressed of how supportive and caring she was, but that is my remembrance of how Kerry was. My thoughts and prayers to her husband and family.

Remembering our trip to Lake Tahoe when we were young rented an older ski boat that started falling apart as we were ripping through the wave and you were so relaxed with your glass of wine enjoying the ride telling us we were doing a great job. That was a fun time.
We will miss you.
