VALE DEACON NICK KERR
Dear Brothers, It is with a very sad and heavy heart that on behalf of the National Executive of the National Association of Deacons, that I write to you this evening to inform you that our Brother Nick Kerr, NAD President, died this morning at 5:00am at the Royal Adelaide Hospital.
Nick was admitted to hospital with pneumonia and a clot on one of his lungs, and had previously been in hospital with pneumonia and damaged ribs. He and Eveleen had recently moved into a nursing home as both of their health had deteriorated.
We offer our condolences to Eveleen and his children and their extended families, on the loss of Husband, Father, grand-father and friend. It is during this times of lockdown that the family will be feeling Nick's death with heavier hearts. Nick's leadership and guidance of the NAD will be sadly missed and leaves us all feeling such a sudden loss. We will all miss him deeply. We ask that you pray for the repose of his soul, and that the comfort of God's loving embrace be with Eveleen and the members of the family during this time of sadness.
