Kerri May Blachly, 47, of Sweet Home, Oregon passed away Tuesday, October 17. She was born in Port Angeles, Washington to Robert Allen and Evonne S. (Reynolds) Sayers.

She lived in Rose Hill, Kansas, Marysville, Washington, and Sweet Home.

Kerri enjoyed camping, hunting with Josh, boating on the lake, floating the river, and playing softball. She loved cuddling on the couch with Josh watching Gray’s Anatomy and spending time with her daughters.

She was a loving wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. She was the light in every room, and a kind-hearted woman. She loved her family and did everything she could to let them know. She will be deeply missed.
