I worked with Percy at the Ann Arbor Police Department. We became close friends while he was there. He helped to break the racial barriers that existed. Rest in Peace old friend. May the Lord take you, and keep you safe in Heaven.

Knew him as an upper classmen . He had already moved on from ferris before i got there in the fall of 73 . Mostly knew him from sports , whitmore had great programs back in those days too . He will be missed by many .

Percy was a great friend ,awesome student ,and a very good athlete ,especially in basketball .He made alot of us look pretty lame. A man with great family values and strong work ethics . May he rest in peace.

Percy was the best! I was the shortest white girl in school, so we loved to stand next to each other and hug! The best day was when he was in a line at the a.a. McDonald's. I saw him and said hi. He seemed to ignore me. When I left, he followed me out and told me to shush, he was under cover! Oops!

To Percy´s family, I met Percy in Whitmore Lake Schools. I coached Junior Wolverines football with him. Percy was a good man of character! May he rest in peace. Dennis and Beverly Schumann
