Heaven welcomed another Killen angel on Saturday, March 26, 2016, when Jerrie Lynn Killen-Dupre, 65, passed away suddenly at her home in the McClelland Community.

 

Funeral arrangements are under the direction of Watson & Sons Funeral Home. There will be a visitation on Friday, April 1, from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the chapel, followed by a graveside service at McClelland Community Cemetery.

 

Jerrie was born January 24, 1951, to George Killen and Mary Lee Lovell Killen, of McClelland Community. She was a very loving, compassionate person, always putting her concerns for others ahead of her own.  She was a very devoted daughter – caregiver for her mother as well as her brother, Charlie.  She never had a thought that did not include them.  Jerrie had a special love and touch for all animals, taking injured animals and caring for them as best she could.  Jerrie will be sadly missed by all who were fortunate enough to know her. We needed her, but Jesus must have needed her more.
