My husband and I were devastated by this accident. We were high on the cliff overlooking the water when we found her. At first we thought that she was snorkeling but could tell something was wrong. We notified hotel staff and stayed at a distance praying.
I was encouraged when ambulance rushed off. I was so sad upon returning home to learn that she had passed. I had hoped that God had us there for a reason. I am so sorry for her husband and family. She was a beautiful woman. I will never forget the pain of this experience and will continue to pray for you all.

I was so lucky to have spent some time with you in life. You shared so much love with so many people! The sky will be a little shinier with you up there! I love you sweet Kerry!
To Kerry's family, may God hold you all in his loving hands. I am so sorry for your loss. Kerry was a beautiful woman inside and out!

To the Skains Family;
We are deeply saddened to learn about your loss. Although we did not have the honor to know Kerry, it is obvious that she was loved by so many people in her life. We are fortunate to have her Brother, Tim Skains within our ranks, and would'nt know what to do without him.
GOD bless you, and know that Kerry is at peace and in good hands.

Good bye Kerry. I remember our senior year of high school so very well. You always encouraged me, and cheered me up when I was down. I only just found you again on face book and you already were inspiring me once again. You were an amazing woman, and so very many people will miss you. I know if I make it to heaven, I'll be seeing you there.
Goodbye my dear friend
Curtis Waldrip,
