KERRY REX STEVENS

November 21, 1957 - September 23, 2021

Kerry Rex Stevens was born in the Doctor's Office, November 21, 1957, in McFarland, CA. He was delivered by his aunt (who would have been 99 years old on the 24 th) and the Doctor who was the mayor who when he was 66 became his Stepfather. Kerry graduated North High School 1976 class president. He went to San Luis and graduated in 1981 where he played rugby and made many friends. He graduated with a master's degree of Science from Cal State Bakersfield in 1999. Kerry was Dean at Vista West High School for 6 years and then was a freshman counselor at Golden Valley High School the last few years. He really loved his work with all the kids. He leaves behind many friends, some since grade school.

He is survived by his mother Ida Carlson of McFarland, brothers Craig Stevens of Golden Valley, Jayme Stevens (Peggy) of Visalia and Jeff Talbert of Bakersfield. Also, many nieces, nephews, and cousins. We love him dearly and he will be very missed!
