Hello everyone,
I just got off of the phone with Ned Morris and he told me that he got a phone call from Carmelli Saturday informing him that Kerry had passed away. He was telling me about some good times that they all had and ho they all were good friends and worked together on alot of stuff at different times. Sad to hear this news.

VERY sad news indeed. Kerry was a great cuemaker. Pool has lost another great cuemaker and pool advocate with his passing. My heartfelt sympathies to his family.

Sorry for the duplicate post, I did a search before I posted it but didn't see that thread.
 
WOW, I spoke to him a few months ago when I was looking to pick up one of his cues...

Wow, I'm amazed.

He will be missed!!!

Rest in Peace my friend!

True I remember kerry telling me that when I ordered that sneaky from him, no wonder it didnt find anything, I typed Zylr.
 
Very sad news indeed. I was hoping Kerry would fully recover from the illness he had and get back to cuemaking. I know others that knew him felt the same way. Kerry had the knack to build a quality cue. His cue waiting list was a long one. He originated the Ivor-X ferrule. May God bless him and his family.

This is very sad, I didn't know him personally but heard good things about his cues. Unfortunately, tomorrow isn't promised for anyone. We should live every day like it is our last. My prayers go out to his family and friends.

very sad to hear the news, I had the pleasure of talking with him a few times and he was very nice and great to explain different things. Very nice guy
 
Zylr cues

This past SBE I was able to get a Zylr. From all the hooting and hollering I had to see what was so special. A very simple cue with presence is how I can best describe the cue. Simply amazing and I love it.

I became a big fan and unfortunately never had a chance to speak with Kerry and tell him how happy I was with the cue.

Rest in Peace Kerry. Heart felt condolences to his family and friends.

Our hearts and thoughts are with Kerry and his family.
He will always be remembered for the legacy of his cues and the man that he is.
 
Kerry was in the hospital for many months hoping to get well. I talked to him last month and Joey Bautista last week. Joey indicated that Kerry's condition was not good. Kerry will be missed by all who knew him. God Bless this old Vietnam veteran and great California cue maker.R.I.P.

god please bless the family and friends

I hope in heaven Kerry is collecting the gratitude he deserves for all he gave to cue making. I wish I could have met him ,his reputation preceded him. mark
