Harry Kerr was one of the first ones Wayne Stillman contacted to be on the committee to build a memorial and he agreed, making him a charter member.
Harry has been the driving force to get the VFW Post 1215 involved with financial support. Through his efforts the VFW has donated many thousands of dollars. His commitment to the memorial has resulted in the addition of other active members to work on the memorial.
Harry and Floyd Riester spent countless hours during the formation of the memorial and Co-chaired the dedication program, June 25, 2000. The amount of time spent was tremendous making the program memorable and the largest program ever held in Rochester.
Harry’s experience, as a highly decorated Vietnam Veteran, his dedication, and his contacts, have proven invaluable during the planning and completion of the memorial.
Harry is heavily involved in his job and other volunteer commitments but has given the memorial thousands of hours and has remained a constant driving force for the memorial.
