Ian Kerr Obituary

Visit the Rochester Cremation - Henrietta website to view the full obituary.
Ian Douglas Kerr, 28, of Brockport, NY, passed away on February 27, 2024. He was born on October 20, 1995 in Rochester, NY. Ian was a beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend leaving behind a legacy of love and cherished memories.
Ian was a dreamer and loveable spirit who you could always count on to make you laugh. He loved to experiment in the kitchen and enjoyed roping his mom into helping him cook his latest recipe. Whether it was helping with numerous outdoor projects, renovating bathrooms for upcoming family visits, building elaborate firework plans for everyone to enjoy, or simply chopping up wood (he really loved his Stihl chainsaws), Ian enjoyed lending a helping hand to his family and friends. He loved to spend time outdoors, had a green thumb when growing plants, and was "one hell of a horticulturist." He could frequently be found loving on his pet rabbit Tufts, Buns, or Binky (or one of the rabbit's many other aliases), spending time with his friends watching movies/shows, playing video/PC games, and scheming up life plans.
Ian will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His laughter, generosity, and love for life will forever be remembered. May he rest in peace.
Ian is survived by his parents Roger and Kelly Kerr, Grandma Cornish, Sisters: Jessica Kerr (Pruss), Katie Kerr (Winchester), and Leeza Kerr, nephews Dean and Cole Pruss, niece Maeve Winchester, Tufts the Bunny and many uncles, aunts, cousins, and friends.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to the family's GoFundMe https://www.gofundme.com/f/ian-kerr-memorial-fund to help with end-of-life expenses; and contribute by sharing any memories you may have.

I remember Ian being a smart, kind young man who was always so pleasant to talk to. He and my son would often ride their skateboards together, either at the Skate Park, old Country Max, or even at Ian's house. Those were good days, and my son will cherish those memories for a long time. It is with deep sadness that I write this, as we just found out last night. We will keep the Kerr family in our prayers as we are very sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Lori Kohr
