Last night, my stepdad, Papa Kerry (as my nieces and nephews knew him), passed away.
He had been battling leukemia and had finally just had enough. My heart is crushed and the sadness of losing such an awesome figure in my life and my family's lives, is absolutely surreal.
He was a part of my life since my early 20's and literally was just the best. We could actually talk about tools and cars and football and rock n' roll. He embraced my crazy family and took on being surrounded by all of us and being his truly authentic self through it all.
I don't like making posts like this. Especially not during this time of year....
Love one another. Hold your loved ones tight. 😔💔💔🎄
