Arrangements
Hello Everyone,
I apologize for waiting so long to post this information, as I know people have been checking all day and calling, but had been waiting to get ahold of some family members first. I apoligize to the family members I have not been able to reach, but I know I cannot wait much longer to post the information as people need to be able to make any necessary plans.
Visitation will be Tuesday, July 31st:
1:00pm – 3:00PMÂ &Â 5:00PM – 8:00PM
Elton Black & Son Funeral Home
1233 Union Lake Road
White Lake, Michigan 38386
248.363.7135
The Funeral Home is located on Union Lake Road, North of Cooley Lake Rd.
At 7:00pm we will have a special rememberance service, where we invite you to share your stories and memories of Kerrie.
The funeral will be Wednesday, August 1st at 11:00am
St. Patrick’s Catholic Church
9086 Hutchins Road
White Lake, Michigan
248.698.3100
St. Pats is located approximatley 2 miles north of the funeral home, on the corner of Union Lake Road and Hutchins Road.
Kerrie will be layed to rest, with our Grandfather, at Holy Seplicar in Farmington, Michigan. Maps to the cemetary will be available at the church.
In leu of flowers we ask that anyone who is interested make a donation to K.A.S.T. or to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
 We’ll post more details once we have been able to speak to our family and have more information available for you.
As I typed this post, I had to stop half way through and regain a little composure…. I didn’t realize the connection until I typed the date for the funeral… August 1st is the day Kerrie left home and we moved to our new home at Henry Ford Hospital. Although she was diagnosed on July 13th, this was the day her journey truly began… perhaps it is fitting that this is the day her journey will finally come to an end.

Even though I will not be attending any of the services, I want you to know my prayers will continue for Kerrie’s close family and friends for the next month as you try to cope and adjust and make decisions regarding her personal items. Sometimes this can be the most challenging of all. I will not continue commenting on the blog but if there should be a family need I will keep in contact via Holly & Rick Andree as I see them twice weekly at Riverside Park Church of God.
I pray that you each one continue to find “Peace in the Valley” Geri

JOAN,
MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY ON THE LOSS OF YOUR DAUGHTER. I LOST MY SISTER WHEN SHE BATTLED CANCER FOR TWO YEARS AND I KNOW WHAT PAIN YOU ARE FEELING. HER FIGHT IS OVER, SHE IS PAIN FREE AND WALKING AMONG THE ANGELS!! REMEMBER ONE THING, YOU DID EVERYTHING HUMANLY POSSIBLE. MY FATHER DIED 6 HRS AFTER GOING TO THE DOCTOR AND I THOUGHT WHY HIM BUT WHEN I SAW MY SISTER SUFFER FOR 2 YEARS AND REALIZED THAT MY FATHER REALLY HAD A MERCIFUL DEATH. JOAN PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. SINCERELY AND WITH DEEPEST SYMPATHY FOR YOUR FAMILY, HENRIETTA KARWOWICZ
