Very sorry to hear of the passing of my cousin Marie Kerr. Marie was always such a beautiful lady. She was impeccably dressed and always had a huge smile. May she rest in peace. Her beautiful presence will be missed by all who knew her.

Dear Kerr Family, I remember your Mom with much fondness. She frequented our family grocery store, Martin's Bros.(Middletown). She took time to chat and was so kind and sweet. A lovely lady. My heartfelt sympathies to you. Kathy Martin's Sandru

Condolences to Marie’s family. I had the privilege of not only working with Marie as a bright light of the nurses office in Middletown but also during the summer of 99 when I was employed at Talbots. It was always a pleasure to be in her company where there was never a problem too big to solve. She had the gift of humor, genuine kindness and a caring spirit that made being with her very special! Sincerely, Connie Daly Salt Lake City, UT

Sincere condolences to the entire family. I had the privilege of working with and sharing an office with Marie (and her pal, Jane Alexander) for many years in the Middletown Public Schools. As a newly transplanted RI resident, Marie always had the best tips to give me about the best places to go on the island, especially if I was searching for a “special something”. We shared many laughs and stories over the years. And that woman NEVER showed her age !! Please know that she will be remembered fondly in my prayers. Regards, Jacque Gorman Prescott, AZ

Michael, Steve, and family, So sorry to read of Mom's passing. Glamor, a laugh, and concern for others was as much a part of her DNA as what she learned in life to keep those traits polished. A few years back she heard of a colleague who needed help facing a move due to a challenge of life. Driving off the island was not comfortable, "Is there a chance...." It took a few morning hours, and she had to treat a late lunch at Fiorelli's(?) near Chaves Flowers. Always an example, and inspiration. Peace, Len DeAngelis
