We would like to thank all the wonderful people for their prayers and words of encouragement during Kerry's bout with cancer.

He was a fighter and we are so proud of him.

We have so many people to thank, especially the ladies of Hainesville Baptist Church, all our friends and neighbors and people we don't even know, Father Nano and our church family at St. Peter's Catholic Church. You are in our hearts and prayers.

Sincerely,

The Family of Kerry Hoffman
