Kerry Alyne Marston

Mar 22

March 28, 1946 -March 8, 2021

Mom was not a fan of funerals or obituaries. So I felt it appropriate to do things a bit differently, In her honor. Anyone who knew my Mom, knew her love of the written word, specifically a good book or poetry. The following poem was written to Mom by her partner John.

Lines for Kerry Preston

Requiem for a Muse

Hands now in a forever hold

svelte form in a patient pose

perhaps its fate you wait for me

Created a Fair Slave to Art

now free to serve your Self Spirit

while I employ your Subtle Gifts

Debt due a Muse is eternal

No currency can be tender'd

The Muse's Gifts endure as well

Hold dear those which are so render'd

My Mother always said to me...... DO NOT celebrate my death, celebrate my life! So let’s Gather and share the happy memories of her life, make a toast to her final farewell. What makes this idea so special to me is that we can do just that on what would have been her 75th Birthday, this Sunday 3/28/2021.
