Dear Ellen,
You are in our prayers. I have several pictures Kerry took of my mom and me at the Mother-Daughter luncheons from past years. I remember Kerry as a warm and friendly person.
Dearest Ellen,
You are in my prayers and thoughts. I am to glad I was able to see you and Kerry over the past few years. He was a very kind and thoughtful person.
I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. I worked with Kerry at MAHLE early in my career. He always treated me kindly and I enjoyed getting to know him.
