Kerry Alan Smith

Kerry Alan Smith was welcomed to his Heavenly home on December 31st, 2016 after a courageous battle of cancer. He was born on September 24, 1960 to W.T. And Betty Smith in Pueblo Colorado. 

Kerry lived life to the fullest. Everything he put his hand to do he did in a BIG way. He loved deep, smiled BIG, laughed often and did more in 56 years than most people do in 100 years. He worked in many arena's, from petaling pot holders as a child, selling Mason shoes, moss rock and firewood as a teenager to Preaching the gospel, carpentry and selling Christmas trees. Then the last years of his life owning and operating Top Country Auto Sells. No matter what he did, he was successful. 

Kerry's priorities were his children Steven and Betty and his family. We could call him anytime day or night. He gave words of encouragement, a hand up, a shoulder to cry on, but always a smile. He said on more than one occasion, " Remember my smile". He was a loving husband, son, father, brother, uncle, grandfather but most of all friend. He left his thumbprint on us all.

In 2014, Kerry married the love of his life Sandy White. He often sang " I'm a lucky man" because he found a pure deep love with Sandy.

He is survived by wife Sandy, children Steven and Betty Smith and Glen And Jamie White, grandchildren Noah Brotherton and Marilyn White. Father, W.T. Smith. Siblings, Beckie, Steve, Scott, Debbie, Ann, Bill, Chuck and Cheri, their spouses, and countless loving nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his loving mother, Betty Smith, whom he missed everyday.  Celebration of Life will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Friday, January 6, 2017, at the Vinyard Christian Fellowship, 245 S.
