Mr. Kerchansky,
I just found out about your passing,due to my being on short-term disability from work, and I have to tell you that my heart hurts. You were one of my favorite patients, and I will truly miss you. Thing simply will not be the same. I will miss talking to you, and your stories of the "Gentlemen's Meetings". As a patient, you truly impacted my life, and I will miss you always. GOD obviously needed you in heaven, but remember we all loved having you here with us.
You Are Blessed,

Matt and the entire Kerchansky family, my condolences go out to you. You will be in my thoughts in prayers. Not a day goes by, Matt that I don't think of my mom looking down on my kids, thanks to the angel you painted in their room. Now your children have one more angel looking down on them as well.

My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time, may you find peace and comfort in the days ahead.
I will miss his smile and wonderful personality, I dont think there was one time when he came here, no matter how he was feeling, that he didnt have a smile or make me laugh, he was truly an inspiration.

Steve was a second father to me since I was in kindergarten. There wasn't a week that went by throughout my childhood that I was not at the Kerchansky house. Steve and LuAnn made their house open to me and I am very thankful for all they did for me. I was like another child to them but most important they were another set of parents for me. Their sons Matt, Dan, and Mike were my brothers growing up. We did everything together from playing hockey, going to the Y, and playing Atari/Sega,Play Station/Nitendo. Without Steve, I wouldn't be the person I am today and have the life-long friends that I do.
My condolences to my brothers and sisters...the Kerchansky family.
