Kieran DOWN Obituary

DOWN,
Kieran Jeffrey (Kerry):
Passed away unexpectedly from natural causes on July 26, 2021, at his home in Dunedin; aged 30 years. Always himself. Always on a new adventure, Kerry squeezed every last drop out of his short and spectacular life. The most unique, courageous, and humble person; he wore jandals rain, snow, or shine and only cared about the things that really matter. He has so many hidden talents – he truly made a difference and meant so much to so many. Deeply loved son of Helen and Steve, brother of Penny, Jess and Kyle, uncle of Charlie, and Lachie, and grandson of Fay.
He'll be so incredibly
missed but he'll live on
in so many ways.
Rock on our beautiful boy.
Please join family to remember Kerry in the Richmond Working Men's Club, 75 London Street, Richmond, Christchurch, at 1.00pm on Monday, August 2. Dress casual. Messages to c/- 19 London Street, Richmond, Christchurch 8013 or leave a message on Kerry's page at www.tributes.co.nz.

Dear Helen & Steve and family, go back 30 years years, Kieran was a delight. Unfortunately we have missed the other 25 years. A beautiful family, mum and dad made a deeply caring family. We read the others that knew him speak highly and lovingly of him. In the best ways of a human a parent would want. So hurt for you both but you have to be consoled that he was a great guy. Much love to you both Xxxxxx

Shocked to hear of Kerry's passing
You will all have treasured memories of Kerry but I'll always think of him in Kaiterteri and the fun you all had together as a family.One of those memories we remember were the fire sticks and his enthusiasm he had practicing all those hours to get it right.
A lovely soul gone to soon.

always in the action - on camp
