Some rare people have the ability to uniquely make other peoples lives better. Kerry was one of them. He was a brilliant player and one of the handful of players I truly felt the need to concentrate while playing. May the Semple family know that Kerry was cherished in our community. I aslo wish to send my condolences to Yvonne as I know firsthand how devasting this loss is personally to you. Rest in Peace Kerry. I have and will always admire you.

Dear Semple family & friends of Kerry, I was deeply saddened by the news about Kerry. He was a brilliant cribbage player and a wonderful cribbage TD. There was many a late night I would YM him to see if he would create a tourney for the crazy late-night cribbers..without hesitation, he always did. Kerry was a class act, a true gentleman in every sense of the word, an excellent cribber too. When I think about Kerry I think, great sportsmanship, polite, courteous, empathetic, encouraging, kindly, scholarly, witty, fun, patient and understanding, to name just a few, there aren''t enough words to describe him, g I will miss him tremendously, as will most in the cribbage world. Rest In Peace dear Kerry, it was an honour and a pleasure knowing you Sir, thank you. God Bless Love Noreen aka LadyNoreen_UK

I''ve had people ask me "How can you have a friendship over the computer with someone you''ve never met?". Obviously, those people never had the good fortune to play a game of cribbage with Kerry. We''ve had the privilege over the past few years to play many games against Kerry, both in singles and teams, with my longtime cribbage partner, Tonya. And judging by the response of the condolences here, we''re certain that we aren''t the only ones to receive that good fortune. Through the power of online gaming, Kerry was able to share his wisdom and enthusiasm for playing all over the world. For Kerry''s family, our heartfelt condolences go out to you. Kerry''s loss will be felt by many, and the lasting memories of his spirit of life will last forever for many of us. We wish the family all the best always.
