"Oh, Kerry, where do I start? I am so fortunate to have known you and our great times together. I will forever cherish the memories. As I write this, I can picture your smile, laugh, and goofiness that I have always loved. We did the most random things together. The reality you are no longer here just breaks my heart. I haven't seen you in a while, but nothing can erase you from my memory. To your sister, your mom, and everyone in your family and your friends, I send my deepest condolences. Kerry, you were a bright light in this world. Rest easy, my friend. 🕊️❤️"
