After a long battle with health problems, Kerrie Waynell Jenkins Listak Goodnight passed away Saturday, Oct. 24, 2009, in Enid at Northwest Special-ity Hospital.
Kerrie was born April 25, 1958, in San Francisco, Calif., to parents Raymond Jenkins and Anna Waynette Lindsey.
Later in life, Kerrie's mother remarried Jerry Listak and she and the entire family moved to Lahoma, where she grew up. Kerrie attended school at Lahoma Public Schools and got her high school diploma later in life. She also received her nurse aide and med aide certification at Autry Technology Vocational School in Enid, Okla. Later she received her pharmacy tech certification.
On June 24, 1974, at the age of 16, Kerrie married Larry Helgeson, and to this union were born two daughters, Kerrie Christal and Jessica Leanne.
Then Kerrie moved to Texas and met the lover of her life, Charles Edward Goodnight. They were married in Mesquite, Texas, on June 5, 1978. This marriage was blessed with one son, Kenneth Ray. Charlie and Kerrie lived in Houston and Rockwell, Texas. Then they moved back to Lahoma, where Kerrie spent the remainder of her years.
Over the years, Kerrie worked as a certified med aide and nurse aide. Kerrie's last job was as a pharmacy tech at Wal-Mart Pharmacy.
Kerrie loved to fish, cook, sew, read a good book and watch scary movies. She also loved to be with her dog Callie and her family and friends.
Her laughter, smile and witty sense of humor will be so missed. She was a wonderful mother, daughter, sister, grandma and friend, who added to each life she touched.
She is survived by her children, Kerrie Burgess and her husband Mark of Enid and Kenneth Good-night and wife Jennifer of Lahoma. She also is survived by her mother and stepfather, Anna Waynette and Jerry Listak of Lahoma; her sisters, Christal Skulborstad and husband Mark of New Caney, Texas, Terry Turner and husband Rob of Minot, N.D., Tamara Shroyer of Enid, Renee Coaley and husband Jay of Lahoma and Jordell Vodry of Yukon; one brother, Jerry Listak and wife Kelly of Clinton; seven grandchildren, Britney and Bradley Goodnight, Brandon and Kateland Seal, Preston and Jennie Burgess and Christ-opher Schaffler. Kerrie has many nieces, nephews and friends who will greatly miss her.
Kerrie was preceded in death by her infant daughter, Jessica; three nephews; her sister, Ginger Wilson; and her husband, Charlie Goodnight.
Heaven's latest angel has won her wings today.
