Obituary: Richard Kerrigan '32

Richard Kerrigan ’32 died peacefully Dec. 20 at Knowlton House with family by his side. We like to think that he has played the course and is in the clubhouse enjoying the 19th hole. He leaves behind two children: Rick (Linda) and Kathy (Bob); four grandchildren: Warren and Amanda Baker, and Andrew and Emily (Vince) Kerrigan; and five great grandchildren: Abby and Henry Baker and Kalan, Orion and Tristan Lamb. Dick is predeceased by his three siblings: Audrey, Nancy and John; by Mary, his first wife and mother of his children; and by Angela Burke, his second wife. Like many of his generation, he served overseas during World War II, returning home to a long career with Bell Canada. He took an early retirement and lived the final decades of his life in his beloved home in Knowlton, initially doing some financial advising with Royal Trust, but soon realized that life was too short not to be on the golf course every day. Thanks to the efforts of his caregivers he was able to live at home until his final days. The family would like to thank Charlotte, Diana, Beverly, Donna, and particularly Danny and Diane Yarmush for the care they provided. Thanks also to Dr. Barakett. A celebration of his life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations could be made to the charity of your choice.
