There will be a void in this world because of Perry’s passing. I am so honored to have had him as a friend over the past 7+ years. Perry was the most giving, sweetest, hardest working man I have ever known. I have no doubt Heaven is celebrating at his presence.

In this life we get the chance to meet and love people like Perry only once or twice. I am changed by my friendship with this beautiful soul. Christmas in heaven is going to be spectacular this year….

Erin–I am so sorry for your loss. Perry was a very special person and I am glad to have known him. I am praying that you can find peace in your memories of your life with Perry.
We follow a pathway that has no end
as we travel through life day by day.
Together with those who are dear to our hearts
and are there by our side, come what may
But sometimes a loved one must travel ahead
for reasons that aren’t always clear.
And we’re left behind to continue along,
missing one who is no longer here.
And while it may seem that the pathway has stopped,
it merely has rounded a bend,
And our loved one goes on to a much brighter place
down the pathway that has no end.
