Michael Perry Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Michael was such a wonderful husband, son, brother, uncle, and friend. Everyone around him wanted to help and do whatever they could during his long and courageous fight with Small Cell Lung Cancer. He was truly loved by so many and will never be forgotten.
He is survived by his loving wife, Rebecca L. Perry, his sister, Sharra (Hayden) Hughes, of Sioux Falls, SD, and many nieces and nephews that loved him so very much.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Lacy and Mavis Perry, from Acme, WV, who had retired in Sioux Falls, SD, his sister, Linda Smith, from Acme, WV, and his brother, David Perry, from Acme, WV.
Michael's wishes were to have no service. Instead of flowers, if you would like to help Michael's family with funeral home expenses, please send to the following address:
Rebecca Perry
307 Kelsey Street
Elkton, SD 57026
A Celebration of Life gathering will likely be scheduled in the future, after a grieving period, and close friends and family will be notified.
