Kerri enjoyed athletics, riding equestrian in her youth and playing both field hockey and basketball throughout her high school and college careers. She will be remembered by everyone who knew her for her zeal for life and a good time, her laugh, her smile, her love of man's best friend, her sense of fashion, and her indomitable spirit during her 16-year battle against CIDP.

To the Byrne Family;
I was really sorry to hear about Kerri. I had the pleasure of knowing her as a parent at Upper township School District. I remember her as an energetic, devoted mom who was always there fot the kids . She was very supportive of our educational system, sports programs and all programs devoted to the health and well being of all students, not just her own. A fantastic person.
I did know about her illness and how she battled on a daily basis. She said to me many times she was blessed in life and was always positive.
To All the Byrne's, my deepest sympathy and continued prayers during this difficult time..., sincerely, Bill Liddell..

I first met Kerri when I taught her youngest son in the Upper Township schools, and will always remember her as a caring and good mother. Over the years, I got to know her (and the family's sweet dogs!) better. She was kind and thoughtful. Her positive spirit throughout her illness was inspiring. She never gave up! I know she will be missed by many. My deepest condolences to her family. Heaven has gained a sweet and fashionable angel to look over us all.
