Former Battlefords resident donates to Territorial Youth Services in memory of her son
A former Battlefords resident is showing her support for a local youth program in memory of her son.
Marla Kerr, who lived here for many years, wants to help Territorial Youth Services [TYS] as a gift to remember her son, Ryan Kerr, who passed away tragically in a collision in 1997.
Marla hopes this donation of $10,000 from her and Ryan’s sister, Marquelle Katzell, will make a difference for other youth, as the program helped Ryan so much in the past when he was facing challenges in his teen years.
She said it’s been 25 years since Ryan passed and this will help keep his memory alive.
