Shirley PERK Obituary
She is survived by three sisters, Gladys, Peggy and Joyce; her son, Leo J. Perk of Williamsburg and his wife, Betty; and a daughter and son-in-law. She boasted of eight grandchildren and five great-grandchildren, all of whom will miss her vitality and often unintentional wit.
In accordance with her wishes, her ashes will be mingled with those of her late husband, Leo M. Perk, and will be scattered at sea in a private ceremony. Her life will be her memorial. View and post condolences on our online guestbook at dailypress.com/guestbooks.

May you be warm and peaceful in your place of rest! You were truly one of a kind, Shirley. We had some great last moments together. So glad we got to take you to Florida with us. The house is not the same without you!
