Earth hath no sorrow that heaven cannot heal. Mr. Perry was a very special person and a great man of integrity. My most heart fealt sympathy goes out to the Family during this time of saddness. I encourage you to keep your faith in God and allow him to heal your hearts. Always remember that we do not mourn as those who have no hope!
