Kerry Mullone, Sr., 88 years of age, was born November 13, 1926 in Melrose, LA and passed away May 24, 2015 in Shreveport, LA. Kerry lived a lifetime working hard and entertaining his friends and family. He always carried two jobs, and worked up until his last days. He was fun-loving, colorful, and light hearted. He loved to joke and pull pranks on people, but received his greatest joy from telling stories, whether true, false, or somewhere in between. Listening to him, you never really knew which one it was. He had a great heart, and a quick wit. He sometimes was misunderstood in his ways, but always had others best interest in his heart. He took it upon himself to be the welcoming committee to the Cane River Community, and even considered himself to be a historian of all things related to the Cane. He went out of his way to make someone feel welcomed, could carry on with the most colorful of conversations, and will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He is survived by his son, Kerry Mullone, Jr and his wife Wanda of Frierson, LA; his close friend, Jo Ann Rachal of Natchez, LA; ten grandchildren; numerous great and great great grandchildren; one sister, Elmina McCain of Houston, TX; and one brother, Matthew Mullone and his wife Yvonne of Houston, TX. He was preceded in death by his wife, Annette Rachal Mullone; his parents, Louis Mullone and Florencestine Kirkland Mullone; two sons, Dwight Andrew Mullone and John Barry Mullone; five sisters; and one brother.
