We are both grieved and saddened by your loss. I met Kerry in college and introduced him to my family in 1979. He and his mother have made me feel like family ever since. The warmth and sincerity that she continually showed will be greatly missed. May God in his Greatness help her loved ones through this time of bereavement.
