Elizabeth Perry Obituary
Elizabeth Brumbaugh Perry, 105, passed away peacefully Friday, December 8, 2017.
She was the beloved wife of the late Dr. Samuel Wesley Perry Jr.; loving mother of Ann (the late Dr. Richard) Mayberry, Susan (Gerald) Farmer, James (Cathy) Perry and the late Dr. Samuel Wesley (Anna) Perry III; and cherished grandmother of 12 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren and counting.
Mrs. Perry was preceeded in death by siblings Dr. Simon C. Brumbaugh Jr. and Esther Smith.
She had an extended family of many nieces, nephews and cousins, her friends at Friendship Village and the friends she met around the world.
Mrs. Perry was an elegant woman, who sought knowledge and wisdom throughout her life.
A registered nurse who trained at Pennsylvania Hospital, she was always curious, going to Westminster College in her 50s, traveling the world to learn how others lived, reading books on all religions of the world and listening to books on tape as her eyesight diminished in the last years of her life.
She loved the theater and particularly the glamour and fashion of the stars. She had the warmth and kindness to make a connection with everyone she met and was known as "Aunt Betty" to her extended family and the friends she met on her life's journey.
There will be a memorial service at 4:30 p.m. Sunday, December 10, in Friendship Village of South Hills. Arrangements are entrusted to Cremation & Funeral Care, 3287 Washington Road, McMurray, PA 15317, 724-260-5546.
In lieu of flowers, the family wishes you will reach out to loved ones with a note, just as Mrs. Perry would have done.

I wish to express my heartfelt condolences to the family (Jim, Ann, Susie, Anna, Maren, and all others of the Perry family) of this extraordinary woman. As her caregiver for a period, I found Betty to be indeed a remarkable, indeliblpe, and an inspiring influence in my life. I have many memories and stories to tell which I will hold close to my heart forever and ever. There are not enough positive adjectives in Websters' to define this stunningly incredible'lady.' She embedded a permanent place in my memory and heart. I loved her dearly; and may peace be with her always. My love to family and friends. Claudette Connors
