Brenda Perry Obituary
Born in Birmingham, Alabama, she was a cherished daughter to Ernest "Red" and Idell Skelton and a loving sister to Sheila Glenn and Debbie Cox.
She is survived by her daughters, Sonya Perry Spencer (John) and Lee Perry-Finley (Scott), who will be forever grateful for her guidance and love. She was a proud grandmother and held a special place for her grandchildren, Jacob, Emma, Cole, and Abby. She was the heart and soul of our family, and she will be dearly missed.
She is survived by her sister, Patricia Connell (Trussville, Alabama); her brother, Jerry (Sue) Hutchins (Ragland, Alabama), and her niece, who was like a sister, Dana Simpson (Darren).
She leaves a legacy of kindness and compassion that will forever be remembered by all who have known her. At her request, there will be no services; however, a celebration of her life will be planned. She made it known that she wanted us to share a laugh and celebrate her journey home.

Brenda, my cousin with the red unruly hair who always dyed it blonde.I used to have so much fun with you when a daddy and mommy used to visit.(Ray & Phyllis Bowman) when we were growing up in the house on the hill. You touched so many lives and were loved by all. I'm sad you are gone but I hope you are rejoicing with the ones who left this earth before you especially my daddy(Ray)

I will be forever thankful for having such amazing Aunt in my life. My Brenda was absolutely gorgeous and so funny I was blessed to have 3 aunts that were all my BFF´s, and more like my sisters than my aunts.
They have all passed on now to be with each other, Aunt Brenda being my last aunt on my moms side .
I shouldn´t be selfish that you are all finally together again after so many years apart, but I´m going to be a little selfish today and say "I do miss you terribly, I miss our daily conversations, and I´m most jealous that I could not personally see the beautiful reunion you all had with everyone when you entered the kingdom of heaven".
I love you more,
Your neice/BFF Dana !

My relationship with Brenda started when she hired me to babysit her girls. Boy was that an adventure!! As time went on she became one of the best friends I had in Pensacola! When I moved back to Alabama she was always on my list to visit when we came down. We actually had made plans not long ago to get together this summer. To say I was heartbroken to hear of her passing is an understatement. Sonya & Lee just know that I will continue to keep you in my prayers! Loved her and love you guys bunches!!!
