Lee D. Kerstetter

To the Lee Kerstetter Family:
I have known Lee and his family for along time as we were co-workers at SCI Camp Hill. I remember when he first started as a correctional officer and thoughout his career at Camp Hill and until his retirement in 2004. I remember when Adrienne & Lana were born. Lee has always shown compassion, respect and understand for others. You taught and helped any and all. Lee will be missed, but not forgotten.

My deepest symapthy to your family . God...

Dear Dad,

I guess I can start by saying that you were one of the coolest people I've ever known. I say this with a small amount of bias as your daughter, but also know that I would say the same if I had just met you randomly somewhere in life. You communicated with me as a person, not just as your daughter. You never looked down upon me for the many questionable decisions I have made in my life. If anything, you gave me respect and encouragement, and many times, a helping...

My condolences to Lee's family. I worked with Lee at the Sentinel in the early '90s, and always found him to be an engaging and unique person.

Lee's dedication to covering the local sports scene will leave a hole in the sports staff at the Sentinel that will be difficult to fill.

I've known Lee for a long time, although, he was always just "Lana's dad" to me. In being a friend to Lana I know how much he was loved through her words. They've had their differences, as any relationship does, but I know that no matter what he was always there for her because of the love he had for his daughter. He will be missed by friends and family and I want Lana, Jane and the rest of the family to know that my thoughts go out to them.

Well I am not sure where to start. First I am Lee's son-in-law, and have known him for the past four years. Lee was loved and liked by many people, and I am glad for the times we had together. Lee had a busy life, but since Gabriel his grandson was born there was a change in his heart. No matter what Gabriel did Lee would just say,"thats OK". Many of you who knew Lee know the ok that I'm talking about. Lee thank you for respecting me, and know that I respected you. I will always remember the...

My dear brother,

Words can't begin to say how I feel. There is comfort, however, in knowing how we felt about each other; the bond between brother and sister. Just know that Mia is in our loving care, where she will continue to be spoiled. Until we meet again . . .

Your loving sister, Joy

Dear Dad,
I am so happy for the growth in our relationship before you passed. You were the best grandfather Gabriel could have ever had. It makes me sad to know that you will not be here for the birth of your granddaughter, but I am thankful for the times we did have. I will never forget you walking me down the aisle on my wedding day and when we danced to "Butterfly Kisses". The thing the touched me the most was what you said while we were dancing and I will never forget that. ...

Dear Jane& Family

My Dearest Lee,

What we had was something so special, an absolute one of a kind relationship that so many are fortunate to find once in a lifetime. You were my soulmate, my confidant, my truest of truest, everything that I had ever hoped for. There will never be a replacement for you. I feel so fortunate to have found you and to have you become a part of my life, and for me to have been a part of yours. I know how happy you were, because I was too. So very happy. I can't...
