As “We have never declared bankruptcy, neither business nor personal. Ever.
Our Story
a small business owner and farmer, I understand first-hand the crushing financial struggles many of us experience in today’s economy. During much of my 31-year business career, we were successful. I started my career with an international CPA firm and later started a Nashville CPA firm. In 1990, I sold my interest in the CPA firm and followed my dream of opening a bicycle shop. Over time, we built it into one of Tennessee’s
I learned far more about myself living through failure than I ever did success. The humiliation of losing so much strengthened our faith in God and our dependence upon Him. We put our faith in God and He provided. He kept our marriage strong and protected our children, who have never given us one bit of trouble. In the end, we avoided bankruptcy. Although we struggled for quite some time, God faithfully provided. Now, I own a new business that places CPAs on temporary projects and couldn’t be happier.
It would have been the easy way out. Instead, we woke up each day putting our trust in God. And each day, He provided.”
largest bicycle retailers. For 20 years it provided a good income for my employees and family. Everything changed with the tragic flood of May 2010. The flood, along with the recession, was too much and we lost our business as well as our savings and retirement. We struggled to keep our home and small farm.
More important, I have a greater understanding and empathy for anyone struggling. I know the courage it takes to overcome hardship, and I know that responding with integrity is always the right choice. - Kerry Roberts

What K erry Will Do Kerry will represent the hardworking people of Cheatham, Dickson, Hickman, Humphreys, and Robertson counties with integrity, dignity, and statesmanship.
Listen to his constituents by always keeping an open-door policy. Bring real-world business experience and fiscal expertise to help solve the state’s problems. Get people back to work by fostering an environment where our small businesses can create jobs and start hiring. Kerry has received the National Federation of Independent Business Owners (NFIB) endorsement. Protect the sanctity of human life from the moment of conception – Kerry was honored to be endorsed by Tennessee Right to Life PAC in the 2011 election to the Tennessee Senate. Defend our right to keep and bear arms – Kerry has received the NRA PAC endorsement.
Kerry will work to find free-market solutions for affordable healthcare. Kerry is firmly against a state income tax and tax increases. He voted to lower the sales tax on food and to eliminate Tennessee’s I nheritance T ax and gift tax. Kerry wholeheartedly supports those who have come to America LEGALLY. He is against amnesty for those who have crossed our borders illegally or who have refused to follow the legal path to citizenship. Kerry believes the United States Constitution is the supreme law of our land and adamantly rejects United Nations’ treaties or Islamic Shariah law in our courts. Kerry will continue to fight against the over- reach of the federal government beyond its enumerated powers and for Tennessee’s 10th Amendment rights.
