Lucinda Darrell Kerr died suddenly on November 2, 2023 in Dallas following a stroke. Darrell was a proficient legal secretary, an award winning quilter, an independent woman, and a very caring and sharing person. She spent most of her adult life in Dallas. Darrell was born on July 29, 1941 in Braddock, Pennsylvania, to Charles and Edna (Clawson) Kerr. After growing up in Atlanta and Chattanooga, Darrell attended and graduated from Mississippi State University in 1963 and then moved to Dallas. Darrell's professional life in Dallas spanned more than 45 years, much of it at Diamond Shamrock, later called Maxus Energy. Throughout her career, the attorneys, executives and co-workers she worked with recognized Darrell for her diligence and accuracy. Darrell's careful attention to details also could be seen in her sewing, whether the project was a small purse or a large quilt. After the death of Darrell's father in 1977, her mother relocated to Dallas and moved into a condominium with Darrell. Together, they knitted, sewed and entertained a growing number of friends they met at Northridge Presbyterian Church. Soon, they treated the members of Northridge as their family. Darrell served Northridge with all of her talents. For more than 10 years she served as the Clerk of the Session, the congregation's governing board. In the Northridge sanctuary, Darrell's handwork was displayed in banners and paraments, which changed with each liturgical season. She sewed stoles for each pastor, embroidering them with distinctive symbols. For members of Northridge, she knitted blankets for the youngest arrivals and sewed quilts of all sizes for children and adults. Anytime Northridge said there was an opportunity to serve, Darrell was there. She participated in the Adult Mission Trips, helping build a church in Juarez, Mexico and repair a tornado-damaged home in Joplin, Missouri. She did whatever was needed, swinging a hammer, wielding a paintbrush or hanging drywall. Also in Juarez, she taught women to sew, enabling them to earn money by selling their work in the U.S. Darrell was a long-time member of the Quilter's Guild of Dallas and the Goin' to Pieces quilting group. With her encouragement, several friends began quilting and discovered their own talent and love of the art. Darrell was preceded in death by her parents, her brother Glenn Kerr, and a niece Dianne Kerr Itterly. She is survived by her cousin Sheila Everett and her sister-in-law Dorothy Kerr. Darrell is also survived by her niece Susan Kerr, husband Jerry Landrum and their children Maralee Landry and Glenn Landry, and by her nephew Charles Kerr, wife Mary and their children DorthyMarie and Charles, and by the children of Dianne Kerr Itterly named Kimberly, Brian and Patricia. A memorial service and reception will be held on Monday, November 6 at 11:00 a.m. at Northridge Presbyterian Church, 6920 Bob-o-Link Dr., Dallas, Texas 75214. A live stream broadcast will be available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCKeOVzrngY. A recorded version will also be available later through the Northridge website. In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts can be made to Northridge Presbyterian Church or to a charity of your choice.
