Although Aunt Pearl and I were rarely together over the years, our times together were always full of fun and laughter. Aunt Pearl and I shared being the baby of our respective Perry families and I was named after her Aunt Pearl 's husband, Emmett Fitzpatrick. Confused? Aunt Pearl was the "last of the Mohicans" of the Charles Granville Perry clan. Blessings on your journey mighty being ! Life, Light, and Love.......... Emmett Perry and my wife Diane Pinney

I am very sorry to hear about your loss.But at time like this it is best to pray.The bible tells us that once you persistently pray to God "the God of all comfort" will give you the courage and strength needed to cope with your loss.(Read 2Corinthians 1:3,4)

Our deepest heartfelt sympathy to all of you. Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you. One of my funniest memories of Pearl is at one Christmas, Brian came home and told me she announced that Karl had diluted the gravey. I can just hear her saying that!

God bless,
