Not sure what to say?

My husband and I have only known Mr. Perry for 12 years but always enjoyed visiting with him. He was a warm, friendly person. He will be missed.

After graduating from Amite County High School in Gloster, Mississippi, in 1971, Emerson relocated to Kansas City, Missouri. He lived in Missouri for over fifty-two years, attending the P.V.C.C. Community College.
