Pauline Klopfenstein IN LOVING MEMORY In loving memory of our dad. son and brother. Thomas L. Kerchaert, who left us seven years ago, January 6, 1979. We did not know the pain he had, or hear his final sigh, we only knew his life was taken without a last goodbye. God knew he had to leave, but he didn’t go alone, for part of us went with him the day God took him home. To some he is forgetten, to others just part of the past, but to us who loved and lost him, his ' memory will always last.
