Donald Perkins Obituary
Born on May 19, 1959, Don lived a full and joyful life. He retired from General Motors after 30 years of service. Outside of work, Don was an avid hunter, the life of the party, and someone who cherished time spent with family and friends. His humor, warmth, and love for the outdoors will be deeply missed.
Don is survived by his loving wife of 42 years, Tammy Perkins; his two sons, Donny and Mitchell; his grandchildren, Ayla and Mason; his brother, Matt; and nephews Brad, Tony, and Johnny Perkins. He was preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Lucille Perkins, and his brother, Bob Perkins.
Honoring Don's wishes, a celebration of life was held prior to his passing. No additional services will be held. Please sign our guestbook or share an online condolence with the family at http://www.oguinnfh.com
