To one of the finest men I know and one of my very first friends to have in Greenwood when I moved here nearly 20 years ago, you will be sorely missed my friend. I'll miss your smiling face when we would run into one another at the One Stop in the mornings and of course Sports Break on the occasion I stop in. I'll see you later Perry and I am praying for you Jimmy. May God give you strength during this hard time. Much love sent to the Hastings' family!

Perry will be missed soo much! "Good-bye Sunshine" After Brandon's death the first time seeing Mr. Hastings I was not sure what to say and the very first thing that came to me and of course out of my mouth it came was "Good Morning Sunshine" that became our greeting. I would always call out Good Morning Sunshine and he would always respond with Good morning sunshine! So now everytime I am at the Hastings' home I will always miss our greeting. And for now say with a very sad heart "Good bye Sunshine" you will be missed!

With great sympathy,

Laura Sears
