It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Dr. M. Kaye Kerr. Kaye passed away at St. Boniface Hospital in Winnipeg, Canada, after a brief illness.
Born in Niagara Falls, NY, Kaye grew up in Youngstown, NY, and graduated from Lewiston-Porter High School in 1959.
Kaye earned her B.A. in Zoology from the University of Connecticut before pursuing graduate studies at the University of Minnesota, where she completed both her M.A. and Ph.D. in Child Development.
In 1969, she moved to Canada and joined the University of Winnipeg's psychology department. Professor Kerr retired from the University of Winnipeg in 2001.
Kaye had a joyful spirit, a wonderful sense of humour, and an unforgettable belly laugh that was always accompanied by her radiant smile.
Kaye was predeceased by her beloved husband Ian. She is survived by two nieces, Tina Oddy and Kim Leabo; and two nephews, James Stephenson and Stephen Stephenson.
