Keri was one of the most amazing people. She loved her kids with her whole heart, one of the best moms I have ever met. She was a truly good person, you don’t find that quality in people much anymore. She was my best friend for a very long time. She was there to pick me up when I needed it and I am so sorry I couldn’t do the same. She was like a mom to my two girls and treated both of them no differently than her own children. There aren’t really words for when the world loses someone like her. I’m sending the family all of my love and condolences. I am so sorry for the loss of someone so special ♥️
