To all of my cousins, the children of Perry and Ruth, I would like to extend my deepest condolences.    I have many fond memories of time spend at the house in Lombard, visiting with the grandparents, Perry and Ruth, and their children.  Ruth was just plain fun and Perry was easy going and kind.  I attended their wedding and remember when Tony was born, and then Suzanne, and Stephanie.  Soon after that, I got married and moved away, so our families lost touch.  Please be assured that I've never forgotten your parents, as they were a big part of my childhood.  And as my brother stated, we were totally fascinated  my Perry's military tattoos!  Love to all of you!

I'm very sorry to hear about Perry's passing. I have many fond memories spent with Perry. He was a beloved uncle, always kind, friendly and funny.  We were fascinated by his tattoos! Perry and I watched Cubs games together in the basement of his Lombard home. The best memory of time spent with Perry was when he took me to his workplace at the VA for my eighth grade go-to-your-dad's-work event. I think my father thought his workplace would be too dull, so Perry agreed to drive me to his work, bring me along to all of his meetings (I noticed that he knew a lot of hard math!), brought me lunch, and let me play with the VA card punch computer system.  Being willing to spend a whole day with an awkward middle schooler shows the true character of my Uncle Perry. He will be missed!!!
