Caldwell, Kerry Scott

Kerry and I graduated from HS the same year in our small town in Missouri, and though not close close friends, I considered him a friend during those years. After graduation, our paths went in different directions, but I've often thought of him since that day, and more so after attending his memorial service in Missouri. It is bittersweet that after 30 years, I find this obituary, always thinking he had died in SoCA. I would love to hear from anyone who knew Kerry during the time he lived in SF.

In the year 2016, hate crimes are still rampant and religious freedom bills attempting to deprive the rights of anyone under the LGBTQ umbrella occur every other week. Seeing this exhibit of brave activists gives me hope to continue the good fight of equality and compassion for everyone.
