FARMINGDALE — Lee Eric Kerr, 64, of Winslow, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, Nov. 22, at Captain Lewis Residence in Farmingdale, after a long battle with cancer. Lee was born in Rumford on Feb. 3, 1953, to Lawrence Kerr and Edna Kerr, and then grew up in Mexico, where he graduated from Mexico High School in 1971.

He graduated from the University of Maine at Farmington with a teaching degree. He then went on to work at Sappi in Skowhegan as a papermaker for 33 years, retiring in May of 2016.

Lee was an avid Green Bay Packers, Dodgers and Lakers fan. He loved the Green Bay Packers so much that he even bought a share of stock in them so that he could become an owner. He truly enjoyed spending time with his children and family and would have done anything for anyone. He also loved taking trips to the coast and going to yard sales, searching for new turntables and speakers to listen to his records and 45s on.

He was predeceased by his father, Larry; and his mother, Edna. He is survived by his son, Ryan Kerr and wife, April of Brewer; daughter, Erika Kerr and fiancé, Dennis Glynn of Augusta; brothers, Allen Kerr and wife, Joan of Nashua, N.H., Jack Kerr and wife, Jan of Santa Fe, N.M., and Mark Kerr and wife, Becky of Dixfield. He was also survived by his granddaughter, Avery, of Augusta; nieces, Darcey, Allyson, Lindsey and Mackenzie; and great-niece, Riley; and many cousins.

The family would like to thank Beacon Hospice and Captain Lewis Residence for taking such good care of Lee.
