Sonya M Perry

Sonya Marie Perry of Hurricane passed away at her home August 29, 2025, at the young age of 60 after a courageous battle with cancer. She was surrounded by loved ones and confident in her faith as she went to be with the Lord. Sonya was born to the late Harry and Jean Chapman on December 26, 1964. She was also preceded in death by husband Norman Laliberty; son, Joshua Roy; sister, Kathy Jackman; uncle, Mike Chapman; aunt, Linda Chapman and brother-in-law, Shawn Laliberty.

Sonya was a nurturer by nature. She was a 1995 graduate of Marshall University with a Baccalaureate Degree in Nursing. She later went to further her education, earning a Master's Degree in Nursing in 2009. Sonya only recently retired from CAMC after 30-plus years in the field that she loved. Her plan was to spend retirement with her family, animals and tending her flower gardens. She had a green thumb which she tried endlessly to pass on to friends and family.

Sonya is survived by her loving husband, Timothy Perry; children, Bryana Laliberty, Timmy (Kaitlan) Perry and bonus daughter, Heather McClure; grandchildren, Gavin, Gage, Corbin, Adrian, Evelyn, Ben and Jake; stepmother, Dorothy Chapman; parents-in-law, Larry and Karen Perry; siblings, T.C. (Janice) Chapman, Valerie (Charlie) Curry and Brent (Ellen) Perry; uncle, Keith Chapman; best friends, Crystal Perry, Christi Roach-White, Natalie Laliberty Richardson, Jamie Ritchie and a host of cousins, nieces, nephews, friends and co-workers.

Visitation will be held Tuesday, September 2nd at 11 a.m. followed immediately by a memorial service at 12 p.m. at Allen Funeral Home, 2837 Main Street, Hurricane. Burial will be at Enon Cemetery in Salt Rock.
