The following information comes from classmate Ruthie Crafts Nurnberger, relayed to me by Ricky Tindol. There are two notes that Ruthie sent, so pls. take a good look at both. If you have thoughts or memories about MIke, please post them here! .... (Charles V.)
Hey Ricky, :-)
Our classmate Mike Kerley passed away on November 9th. His son and ex wife are having gathering in his honor at Johnny Harris on December 7th from 5:00 - 7:00. I'm sure we have classmates who would like to attend. Could you send a message or post this please? I'm sure there is a way for me to do it, but I'm very low tech and I want to be sure it happens. I am going to forward her email to me.
I miss all of our pre reunion communication.
Thank you,
Ruthie

Hey,
We will have an informal gathering to honor MRK from 5:00 - 7:00 at Johnny Harris' on Friday, 12/7/12. I don't expect a big crowd. Any one you want to pass the word to, would be welcome. We'll have finger food, wine, beer, iced tea. Nicholas (and girlfriend) will be there. I know that's a long way to travel but you know that I'd be delighted to see you again.
I'd love a few words or story about MRK that I can print out - I'd like to collect stories or thoughts from friends to give to Nicholas.
