On October 26, 1992, Kerry married the love of his life and soul mate, Peggy Ruth (Collins) Callis. Kerry’s love and care for Peggy were evident to all who knew them. Together they were like peas and carrots, inseparable and devoted to one another.

Kerry enjoyed life’s simple pleasures. He had a passion for collecting coins, enjoyed fishing, smoking meat, and loved going on lake vacations with his family.

In addition to his parents, Kerry was preceded in death by two sisters, Deena Williams and Sherry Nelson, and one brother, Donald McCollum, Jr.

Survivors include his beloved wife, Peggy; stepson, Chuck Callis and wife Eva; granddaughters, Susan Coble and husband Robbie, Shannon Russell and husband George, and Sheena Ellett and husband Race; grandsons, Edward Callis and wife Candice, and Ty Callis. He was also blessed with great-grandchildren, Michael Ellett, Jordan Callis, Aubrey Coble, Zakary Russell, Kyeson Coble, Abigail Russell, and Ivy Callis; one sister, Melissa Tiger; as well as several nieces, nephews and extended family members who loved him.

Kerry’s love, kindness, and steady presence will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His memory will live on in the memories of his family and friends.
