In fond memory,
Diseases are not fair, so I am relieved dear cousin, that you are now at peace. Mike will be sorely missed in this world and I am so sorry for this loss to the Kerr's; especially his children, whom he loved so dearly. Until we meet again in Heaven . . .

Mike was the consummate expert on the CFD, canteen operations, and anything about the fire service in Chicago in general. His passing is a shock to many, including me.
My deepest condolences to the entire Kerr family at this very sad time. May his memory be for a blessing.

Its hard to say Goodbye !
Michael you always were out in the cold
or hot weather even though you were not feeling well helping out charities, CFD, CPD, Volunteering , sharing your
pictures.
Always amazed me how so many friends would show you an old picture
and you would remember the persons name.
I have been replaying a message to hear your voice. Sure everyone knows
Your story by now but that's ok your without pain and your with family and friends who have left before us.
Love You! Miss You !
Till we meet again.

The outpouring of support for my brother "Mike", is overwhelming. He touched many lives: working in the fire alarm office, volunteering for the salvation army canteen service, the 5-11 club and many charitable organizations. He gave 100% all of the time and my family appreciates the kind words and support.
