When reading Sis Perry’s obituary, many fond childhood memories came to me. When Bro Perry pastored at Sand Hill Missionary Baptist Church, their family shared many Sunday dinners in our home. Wonderful family. I know Bro. Perry has been waiting in heaven for her. They served the Lord together for many years here on earth, and now they will spend eternity together in heaven. Love and prayers to Danny, Dale, Albert and their families.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Better days are ahead.
During this difficult time, remember the great times and cherish your memories because they will be with you forever. The family is in our thoughts and prayers.
Danny, Dale and Albert
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. I know it is hard to let go but we all know she is in a much better place.
Take care and will try to see you all soon.
