R.I.P. Dr. Kerr

I knew of Dr Kerr´s injury, but didn´t know of his passing until today. Mrs. Kerr, my belated but sincere condolences to you and your family. Dr. Kerr was a one of a kind individual, a great doctor and even better person. The way in which he and yourself expressed compassion over the years seemed to know no limits. Rest In Peace, Dr Kerr, thank you for so many years of kindness to both animals and humans on this earth. Mrs. Kerr, God´s peace with you, you are a good soul.

Dr Kerr is/was more than family, he was a kind hearted person that would go out of his was to help those in need...friend's, family and stranger's...R.I.P. Dr Kerr

I met Dr. Kerr in 1983 when my father and I had a business a couple of doors down from him on Edison Avenue. He was a very caring, compassionate and generous person with a great sense of humor. He would often stop by during his mid-day lunchtime walks and visit with us. He took great care of our Dobermans and other pets for many years. My deepest condolences to Diane and the Kerr family.

Dr Kerr was a man of men. I'm fortunate to have known him. R.I.P.

I won't forget how it seemed like they would always be helping an abandoned or neglected animal at every visit. It was always at no charge. And without fail, I remember getting quietly emotional at this beautiful display of...

Dr. Kerr was a wonderful, caring man. He was our vet when I was a kid with my first kitten and continued to be as I grew into adulthood and adopted my dog Daisy; and many furry friends in between. I know he will be missed by many.

Dr Kerr and Diane did so much much for the animals in the Jacksonville community for so many years. We ended up at Edison based on a co-workers recommendation. I was thrilled when I found out that Dr Kerr was a Purdue graduate, caring for a fellow Boilermaker's "fur babies". He had a quick wit and sense of humor when he said the new puppy had size 10 paws and was going to be a big boy.
Dr Kerr was so kind and compassionite when we had to make that hard decision every pet owner dreads....

What an incredibly caring man. Dr. Kerr was our vet for years and I can still see him drawing on his chalkboard to explain what was wrong. I remember the first time I met him with my geriatric cat. He spent quite a long time and although he never mentioned "dying" my cat's days were seriously numbered. I asked him how will I know and he said, "Your cat will tell you when it is time." I left to settle the bill and Diane said, "No charge." He took care of our old dog through her last days and...
