    Incredibly sad,, I hope his episode is replayed, Here is one of the two SC EP:597 Bigfoot Odyssey
    Anyone that has heard his story should realize just how much the encounter changed him for the better,,
    Willing to talk with anyone and even posted a number to call him directly

      Kerry will be terribly missed. Praying for his family during this difficult time. I’m sure Kerry is safe with Jesus. ” For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance..”

    Wow this shocked me. Kerry was a friend, and I was a member of rhe BFO team early on in its production. Kerry had a unique tone to his voice that drew you in. Kerry and I had dome differences but we remained friends and all as he needed to do is call me and I would help him out. I hope that Linda continues the BFO tradition in Kerry’s honor.

    We will miss you buddy, and now you may get to know the real deal on Sasquatch.

    May God watch over you and keep you my BF friend

      I wish we could somehow set up a site or something, where ppl could come and just sign their name and where they’re from, so Mrs. Linda could have it to show his kids and family that Kerry touched ppl all over the world. That’s no easy feat for a country boy from Mississippi. I’m sure gonna miss him!

      Absolutely heartbroken! This man has shared his life to bring awareness to this subject! Hope he can see how many lives he touched. I didn’t personally know him, but I am devastated as if a family member has passed. Linda and boys, I am beyond grateful for you all sharing your husband, your father, our friend. Kerry may God give you the comfort you gave to so many! Rip Brother! Praying for Linda and the boys!

    I had to read Linda’s post a few times to let it sink in that Kerry was actually gone. I never met him, but have spoken with him and exchanged several emails. His personality was such, that even though you hadn’t met him, you still felt like you knew him and he was your friend. May we all strive to be the same way. Thank you Kerry for using your negative event years ago, to strive to make it for good. RIP

      Doug, where did you read Linda‘s posts? I am heartbroken and in disbelief. It will take a long time for this to sink in. Other than Sasquatch Chronicles, Kerry was my go to site. Many prayers for Linda and his sons and family, production co-hosts, friends and all of us who so enjoyed him and Bigfoot Odyssey. ????

        She posted on facebook. She said that he should be pulling in the driveway right now but instead God chose to take him. She said she would be going to Texas tonight to bring him home. There’s footage someone took of the crash that I saw on facebook. It was really violent and horrific looking. The other driver involved also passed away. So sad.

    Oh my. ????

    Requiem aeternam dona Kerry, Domine. Et lux perpetua luceat eis.
    Fidelium animae, per misericordiam Dei, requiescant in pace. Amen.

    Eternal rest grant unto Kerry, O Lord. And let the perpetual light shine upon them.
    And may the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen

    Will miss you in the community.

    Condolences to the family.

    This is one of those things you read and just say out loud ,” this cannot be true”!! Then the horrible feeling hits in the pit of your stomach. I loved listening to him not just because of his episodes but because he sounded like a truly good man, with a truly good heart. Such a terrible terrible heartbreaking tragedy.

    Kerry will be missed so much!
    He was such a breath of fresh air. No disrespect to anyone else as there are many many good people in the bigfoot world community but he was definitely one of those many for sure.
    Linda, Daniela, Brad and Mark, you are in our thoughts and prayers. You are all the awesome people Kerri had around him throughout his Odyssey.
    God has His reasons and maybe He felt Kerry’s Odyssey will help and reach more people from above.
    As some have said here on earth we work with one hand but in heaven we will continue the work with two hands.
    You wont be forgotten Kerry. Every time i walk in the woods you are and will be invited to come along.
    Rest in peace you gentle giant.

    Rest In Peace Mr Arnold. I only got to talk to you in a chat message once and wish I would have known you more but you were kind to me for being a redneck from Tennessee. Condolences you to your family and to the BF world. We love you man Rest In Peace.

    How awful. I really appreciated Kerry and his work, and I’m in shock that he has passed away. I’m so sorry. He had such a reassuring tone in his voice, and you could feel the deep of care he extended to others. We never met but I knew he would make a great friend. I can’t imagine how many people are heart broken to hear this and my prayers go out to them, and especially to his wife and family. Rest in peace Brother Kerry.

    As I sit and read all these condolences, my heart struggles to believe this is real. I never met Kerry in person but did get to talk with him on the phone and texted with him some. I can promise you…he was as real and kind and thoughtful as he came across on the show. A true southern gentleman and as someone has already said…a gentle giant of a man. As badly as my heart is shattered I can’t even imagine the devastation that Linda, the boys and the family are feeling. This just feels so WRONG and UNREAL. He has had such a profound effect on so many and so many hearts are broken in disbelief….I hope Linda can find some comfort in knowing he was so loved by so many. Many prayers for her and the family and Kerry, my friend…rest in peace. We will never forget you…
