God cares for the brokenhearted; Psalm 34:18 assures us that he is close to them. Psalm 147:3 says: "He heals the brokenhearted; He binds up their wounds". Please accept my sincere condolences. Always remember God loves you and he cares for you! (Psalm 36:7; 1 Peter 5:7) jw.org

I would like to extend my deepest condolences to the Mckoy family. I met Kerry when I moved to Greensboro less than a year ago. He was my neighbor for about six months. Kerry was a good guy! We hung out together he would get my kids off the bus we loved him dearly. He would make the best bacon and eggs and to us he was a part of our family. Last Christmas he helped trim the tree and made ornaments with the kids. Kerry was very well spoken and he loved God. We would have Bible study and pray together and although he could not hold a tune would make his joyful noise! Always dressed nice the only man who wore Gucci & Louis Vuitton at the same time. He would always help others. During the holidays he gave all the little boys hair cuts and did it with a smile. Kerry inspired me to do better and encouraged me to keep going during the darkest days of my life. Motivated me and countless others to never give up! Its very hard to face reality that you are no longer with us here on earth but forever in our hearts....
Rest in Heaven

I am truly sorry for your loss and I wish I could have done more for Kerry
I met Kerry in 2016 when he came to Greensboro and we talked almost everyday since that first night. Kerry was full of life and always looking to make something better of his self. I missed his company when he moved from Greensboro and I sometimes I wish he had stayed with me and stay connected to his other family here. I know Kerry loved God and he is the ultimate authority so I surrender and accept his decisions but this hurts deep

I would like to express my deepest sympathy for the loss of your loved one. May Jehovah, the God of all comfort, help your family during this difficult time.

2 Corinthians 1: 3-4 "Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials that we may be able to comfort others in any sort of trial with the comfort that we receive from God."

Kerry and I lived, slept, and ate together under the same roof and in the loving care of our Grand parents. In life we climbed many of the same fences, only to fall where we started from. Kerry was no quitter, not afraid, and would always start the climb again. The word love cannot even express the affection or the memories we shared. As in life., in memory cousin you are loved by all of us.

To the McKoy Family,
I had the pleasure of meeting Kerry in 2016 while he temporarily resided in Greensboro, NC. Kerry was always full of life and loved to talk. He was eager to provide wisdom to those in need and often shared his life struggles to help those who were experiencing similar struggles. His conversations always involved his belief in a Higher Power and for that I take comfort in knowing he had a relationship with GOD the most high. I believe Kerry served his purpose here on earth and that GOD lent him to us for a season to touch those who were struggling to get their lives together. To some he has been an angel by encouraging them to get their lives back on track and THEY DID!! Job well done Kerry!! You can rest now and I pray you receive your crown in GOD'S Kingdom!! Kerry and I have had countless conversations about life in general and at the end of our talks he would say "later". I would say "goodbye/bye" and he would say "Sandra don't say bye, say talk to you later". He would even call me right back if I said goodbye and make me say talk to you later. The last time I talked to Kerry I realized that I once again said goodbye but this time he didn't call back. I didn't know it would be the last time I heard his voice and I wished I would've said talk to you later Kerry. But I will say "SEE YOU LATER KERRY" because I believe in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!! And that he rose on the 3rd day so that we will have EVERLASTING LIFE!! Watch over your protégés Kerry and keep them on the right track. I know you took those Barber Tools to Heaven with you and are offering to cut any and everybody's hair!! You were a kind person with a good heart...See you later on the other side my friend!!!

God Bless Your Family and your son during their time of sorrow
Sandra
