Kerry lived in Newmarket Ontario since 1965 and worked for Ontario Hydro for 35 years. He enjoyed a long retirement which gave him the opportunity to spend time with his wife, children and grandchildren, which was his biggest passion in life.

Together with his wife Jeanne raised a family with love and respect.

Through their relationship and especially in the last few years they would lean on each others strengths.

Kerry would do anything at the drop of a hat for his children and Grandchildren. He loved to give the grandkids nicknames which they all cherish.

Special thanks to the caring staff at Southlake, especially the Palliative care team.
