HAPPY 54 BIRTHDAY 

KERRI KINCAID!

On August 18, 2021 I met my childhood best friend Kerry Kincaid from Revere, Massachusetts. This was a very important healing opportunity for both of us! I lived on North Shore Road from 2nd through 5th grade during the 1970's and spent many days and nights at Kerri's home and in our neighborhoods. 

Kerri Kincaid and Sherri Raftery at her father's parents home (her grandparents) in the backyard. They had a pool and we spent many days there. They were supportive and loving towards us. This photo was taken in the early 1970's. We are not sure which year but we definitely were younger! We shared many memories and shed a couple of tears. It was healing and we hope to continue meeting more often and staying in touch. We may even write a book or a made for TV movie. Some of our stories are actually pretty incredible, fascinating and perhaps almost even unbelievable. We both turned out well. She has  three lovely daughters and I have one. Let's see what the next few decades can help us discover.

There is nothing better than having a best friend to call, see, lean on, and share what we are going through. Happy times, sad times. We shared an incredible bond that helped me to established lasting friendships and bonds during my life. I needed those bonds of stability during my unstable life. Thank you for being my friend and accepting me for who I was. I love you always and I always carried you in the locket of my heart. You helped make life easier in the most difficult of times. Hugs to you my friend. I am so proud of you. I am grateful to have known you when we were in our childhood years. I wished we could have stayed in touched over the decades, but the bond always lasted. Proud of you and I hope you enjoy your Birthday with many more to follow. 
Love your Best Friend Forever - Sherri
