Mr. John William Kerr who was born June 25, 1934 in Marion County, Indiana, went home to be with his Lord and Savior March 2.
Mr. Kerr was a sweet and beloved man in his family and community and was an encouragement to many. He was veteran of the U. S. Navy, and the U. S. Army. He obtained a Master’s Degree in Law at Indiana University. Mr. Kerr was the owner of Duraclean on St. Simons Island.
Although his accomplishments in life were many, he would say his most important accomplishment was caring about people and their concerns and sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ both in his work and community. John loved and accepted everyone, unconditionally, and wanted everyone to know that Jesus loved them the same way.
He was married to his loving and devoted wife, Pam Kerr of St. Simons Island, GA. His children were the late John W. Kerr, Jr., Melissa Kerr of Chicago, IL, and Catherine Brunson of Atlanta, GA and his grandchildren were Kamilah Brunson, Garner Lammes and Edward Kane.
