She also leaves special and much loved friends, Derek and Lydia Brockway and Michelle Flanigan.

She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Jerry and Ann Koucky and Matthew and Rose Krizman and her beloved feline and equine family, Riley, Bo, Klutz, Swiss, and Norma.

The family wishes to thank Air Methods, Savannah and the Human Resources team. Your kindness and understanding will never be forgotten.

We would also like to thank the doctors, nurses, and staff at University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center in Chardon, Hospice of the Western Reserve, and Father Ian Kelly of St. John Vianney Catholic Church and our caring family, friends, and neighbors.

Kerry was blessed to be loved and to receive extraordinary care and compassion by her fiancé, Patrick. Words alone cannot express what that meant to her.
