This message is to the entire family, but especially to Precious. I'm so sorry I couldn't be there to give my support in person. However, you were and still are in my prayers.

What a wonderful woman Sister Perry was and it was delightful to see her grow in her love for her Heavenly Father, Jehovah. He will remember her love and bring her back to a Paradise earth. Now it is time for us to prove true so we can see all of Jehovah's wonderful promises become reality.

Dear Family,
You probably already know this but Corene was a remarkable woman. I so admired her when she worked with our Respite program in Chesapeake and the families she worked with always spoke highly of her. She always did those special extra things that eased some of the stress on our families. I am very sorry for your loss. I hope it helps to know that our loss is her gain. May God Bless you all.

Sister Perry will be greatly missed. I look forward to seeing her again in the paradise-young and healthy. To the family, rely on Jehovah God to carry you through your darkest days.
