Perry loved his family and working on the USS Arizona replica which he towed and or traveled with Wanda to show every one from school kids to combat veterans from WWII to Afghanistan.
One of Perry's latest treasures he found was a vintage WWI military serviceman's ID dog tag maker which were metal discs back then.

The last thing Perry did was what he and Wanda loved to do and that was display the USS Arizona in the annual Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day at the State Capitol.

Perry died while still serving his community, an unselfish, behind the scenes God fearing, American Patriot, Husband, Father, Grandfather, Friend, Neighbor. He kept life real and we will miss him for the rest of our own lives.
