On August 11, 2018 our beloved daughter Kerry Dawn was called by our dear good Lord to come home and help bring brighter and happier times to all of her family and friends who at some time in their life will need an angel to guide them.
Kerry was born on September 25, 1977, in El Paso, Texas to James and Lillian Robinson Couder.
Kerry attended Eastwood High School. She continued her education at Our Lady of the Lake University in San Antonio, Texas graduating with a Bachelors Degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. After receiving her degree Kerry worked for various pharmaceutical companies and at the time of her passing Kerry was a Senior Safety Specialist for Gilead Sciences, Inc.
Kerry’s life may seem too short to many, but those who were touched by her understood that the Quality of Existence far exceeds the Quantity of Time in which one lives. Her gentle smile and generosity brought so much joy to all of her family and friends. Remember the best times, laughter, songs she loved, and the good life she lived while she was strong.
Kerry loved music, being with family, having fun with friends and totally dedicated to her job trying to make a small contribution in the field of medicine.
Kerry is survived by her parents James and Lillian Couder, Sister Melanie Couder Gutierrez and husband Jose, Brothers Steven Couder and wife Sara and family, Jay Couder and wife Chris and family, Fiance Guy Hayter and numerous Uncles, Aunts, Cousins, Nephews, and Nieces.
