Phyllis J. and Kenneth A. Zerr, of Wentzville, MO, passed away Thursday, November 10, 2022, both the age of 84.
Ken proudly and honorably served in the United States Air Force. He was a member of the VFW and was also a man of faith. Ken loved genealogy and was always researching. He loved tinkering with something and was often in the garage, or he could be found spending time on the computer. Ken loved fishing and hunting deer.
Phyllis loved gardening and being outdoors. She was quite the scrapbooker and liked crafting memory books for her grandchildren. Phyllis was a big reader and loved doing search and finds. She was a proud woman of faith and was also a member of the Handbell Choir. She loved to play and teach others the piano. Phyllis studied music at Lindenwood and also enjoyed studying horticulture. She and Ken loved birdwatching and studying the names of each bird.
Ken and Phyllis were both very involved in their church. They regularly volunteered for sausage dinners and local fish frys. They loved to travel together. Ken and Phyllis traveled the country, including Hawaii and Alaska, visited family in Colorado, and even took a 13-state vacation with their family. They also ventured over to Europe. In their younger years, the couple enjoyed camping with their families. They looked forward to family get-togethers and holidays.
Phyllis was a true family matriarch, and Ken was the ultimate family patriarch. The couple loved their family and each other more than words can convey. After 63 beautiful years of marriage, Ken stood by Phyllis’ side through their last moments. Their love and commitment to one another remain an inspiration. Ken and Phyllis were dearly loved and will be greatly missed by all who knew them.
