Wendell Perkins, known to family and friends as “Rayford,” passed away on March 4, 2021, at the age of 59 years in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Rayford will be remembered by his wife Kathy Martin, and his children Whitley 19 (daughter) and Kendall 17 (son). Rayford would have liked to note the dedication and commitment that he released to his sister Dr. Jocelyn Enabulele and Friday Enabulele to rear both of his children from age 6 months and 3 years of age.

He was baptized at an early age at Damascus Missionary Baptist Church in Houston, Texas. Rayford loved to build computers and took great pride in creating innovative landscapes that attracted companies around the world.

Rayford will always be in our hearts and will be remembered by his family: Larry Perkins (brother), Deborah Hunter (sister), Reponsal Perkins (sister), Pamela Perkins (sister), Jacqueline Patterson (sister), Dr. Jocelyn Perkins-Enabulele (sister), and Belinda Harlan (sister).

He had a host of Brother-in Laws, Sister-in laws, Nieces, Nephews, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, and Friends!
