Deanna L. (Anders) Kerker, 59, passed away on Saturday, May 14, 2022 due to complications of long term Covid 19.

Funeral services will be held at 1:00 PM, Saturday, May 21, 2022 at the Phillips Funeral Home Chapel (212 E. 6thStreet) in Vinton. Visitation will be held from 10:00 AM until service time on Saturday at the funeral home. A celebration of Deanna's life will also be held at a later date.

Deanna was born on September 13, 1962, to Don and Doris (Smith) Anders. She graduated from Benton Community High School, with the class of 1981. She married David Kerker on June 15, 1985 in Newhall. Deanna worked as the office manager of the family's floor covering business in Newhall.

Deanna's greatest joy was her family, (especially nieces and nephews), friends and the many animals she adopted over the years. She was the go-to person in Newhall when loose animals were found. She would find the owners, or if strays, she would board them until she found a permanent home for them. Deanna took pride in her flowers and her yard, as well as decorating her home. She was known as the shopping queen, especially for shoes, purses, and jewelry. Deanna had an infectious laugh, and a huge heart that brought happiness to those around her.

Deanna is greatly loved and will be missed by her husband David; fur babies Zeke, Rocky, and Emmie; father, Don (Jo) Anders; brother Alan (Diana) Anders; sister Linda (Galen) Kerkman; 10 nieces and nephews; 6 great nieces and nephews; mother-in-law Darlene Kerker; and sister-in-law Donna (Bill) McGill.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Doris; brother, Randy; niece Courtney; father-in-law Don Kerker; sister and brother-in-law Debbie and Danny Kerker; and many dogs; cats; birds; and donkey Fonzie.
