Kerry Land Kimler, 82, of Bossier City, Louisiana, passed away peacefully on October 24, 2026, surrounded by her loving family.
Born on June 16, 1944, in Natchitoches, Louisiana, Kerry graduated from Campti High School in 1962 and went on to build a successful career in the oil and gas and banking industries in Alaska and Louisiana. Upon retirement, she devoted her time to what mattered most to her: her family.
Above all, Kerry cherished her faith in the Lord and the family she loved so dearly. Her faith was an important part of her life, and her love and devotion to her family were at the heart of who she was.
Kerry is survived by her beloved husband of 46 years, Kenny Kimler; her daughter, Sherry Lee; her granddaughter, Lauren Lee; and her brother, Robert Messick and his wife, Pat, along with their two daughters and grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her brothers, Larry Messick and Donald Messick.
Funeral services will be at 11 A.M. Thursday, October 29, 2026 at Davis Springs Southern Methodist Church with Bro. Ken McLaren officiating. A private graveside service will be held. Visitation will be held from 10 A.M. until service time on Thursday at Davis Springs Southern Methodist Church.
In lieu of flowers, the family request memorials be made to Davis Springs Southern Methodist Church in memory of Kerry.
Kerry’s life was a blessing to those who knew and loved her. She will be deeply missed and forever loved, and her memory will live on in the hearts of her family and all who had the privilege of knowing her.
