Donald Kerr, 88, of Kansas City, MO, passed away November 11, 2016.
Born October 21, 1928 in Oswego, KS, Don moved with his family to Eudora, KS where he graduated from Eudora High School. Don joined the armed services upon graduation in 1946 and began a 27-year career in the U.S. Air Force.
Stationed at South Ruislip USAFB near London in the late 1950s, he met his wife Mary (Terry) Johnston Kerr to whom he would have been married sixty years this Christmas eve. Don was next stationed at Amarillo AFB in Texas, where his daughters Beverly and Donna were born. The family enjoyed later assignments to Air Force bases in Bermuda and Washington, D.C., before obtaining an assignment to Richards-Gebaur AFB in order to be close to Don's parents David and Grace Kerr. After retiring from the Air Force, Don worked for the Social Security Administration in Kansas City until the early 1990s. Don and Terry enjoyed many years of active retirement, traveling often to favorite destinations in New England, California and the northwest.
Don is survived by his wife, Terry, and his daughter Donna and husband Tim Knight of Kansas City, as well as his daughter Beverly, of Austin, TX, and niece Deanna Kerr and nephew Steve Kerr, both of Salt Lake City, UT. He was preceded in his death by his parents and his brother Dean.
