Kerry Rae Connolly is a writer, speaker, and advocate for care partners. She has spent over 30 years working with mission-driven, community-based organizations and is passionate about service. She remains deeply involved in the Parkinson’s community in honor of her late husband, Harry.
For the past decade, she has contributed to the World Parkinson Congress, serving on planning committees and coordinating volunteers for congresses in Portland, Kyoto, Barcelona, and Phoenix. Locally, she volunteers with Parkinson’s Resources of Oregon and co-founded Movers & Shakers PDX, a walking team that raises awareness of Parkinson’s. In addition to monthly walks, the team participates in the iconic Portland to Coast relay every August.
Kerry Rae lives in Portland (the one on the west coast), with Harry’s retired service dog, Ras. She loves outdoor adventures and finds great joy sleeping in her tent. She loves experiencing new cultures and exploring the world with curiosity and heart, and she loves towing her little trailer down long dusty roads. She is grieving and growing. This is her first book.
