Paul Perinjian Obituary

My big brother Paul Perinjian was born on January 4, 1965, and he died on August 21, 2025. He was a wonderful person, son, brother, nephew, cousin, friend and adored by all including his brother-in-law, Robert Cutler. May his soft soul rejoin our angel parents, Margaret and George Perinjian for all eternity.

A poem by Paul's sister, Kathy (Perinjian) Cutler, humbly and lovingly:

As kids, we played basketball, softball, frisbee, and more.

My big brother Paul Michael, who I adore.

He was always so giving; he'd share his food with his family first.

His love was open, genuine and never rehearsed.

Thursday, August 21, with tears abounding, I held his hand as he died,

but with solace knowing that our angel parents had arms open wide.

Family will receive friends, Wednesday, August 27, 2025, from 6-8pm at A. J. Desmond & Sons (Vasu, Rodgers & Connell Chapel), 32515 Woodward Ave., (btwn 13-14 Mile Rd.), Royal Oak, 48073, 248-549-0500.

A private burial will be held at Roseland Park Cemetery, Berkley, MI.
