Kathy was born in Huntington, New York on Dec. 8, 1966 to Peter and Beverly (DeJesu) Kerber.
Kathy attended public schools in Guilford and Brattleboro, Vermont, Dean Jr. College in Franklin, Mass., and the Fashion Institute of New York City. Before marriage Kathy modeled; she was runner-up and Miss Photogenic at the Miss Vermont pageant.
Kathy started the Falls River Inn in Bernardston, Mass. She then went to get her L.P.N. license and worked at Corner Medical and Northeastern Vermont Regional Hospital. She loved being with her family, hiking, biking, cross country skiing, and gardening.
She is survived by her husband Alex Wright, their two children Griffin and Aliza of Danville; her parents Peter and Beverly Kerber, formerly of Guilford, Vermont and now of Munsonville, New Hampshire; two brothers: Peter Kerber and wife Sheri of Bernardston, Mass., Clinton Kerber and wife Trista of Guilford, Vermont; nieces Madelyn and Sophia; nephews Harrison, Brian, James, and Jonathan. Kathy will be sorely missed.

I am so sad, heartbroken and shocked to have just heard about the loss of Kathy. We met in NYC where we worked together, traveled to Florida together and I was in her wedding. I am so sorry that we lost touch. I have wonderful memories of time spent with her. My heartfelt sympathy goes to her family. I am so very sorry for your loss.

I worked with Kathy at Mumbles in NYC in the late 1980s. She was the most delightful, classy girls /women /human beings I, or anyone, will ever know. I googled her today just because I thought of her. I am stunned. Saddened. Heartbroken for the family. Words cannot describe it. I am so very sorry for your loss. It is everyone's loss. Especially yours.
Sincerely,
Tom Mooney

So sorry to hear of Kathy's passing. A beautiful presence, now perhaps, enlisted to "Angel Messaging Service" Karen (Jonah's mom).
