He married his love Marjorie Althea Cameron, who died in 1980, and later he married Yvonne Kingston Stein and they shared a wonderful life with each other; she gave him such loving care in his remaining years. Perry was a proud Second World War Veteran. He will be remembered for his love of life, golf, bridge, cribbage, horses and travel. He spent over 30 years with the Bank of Nova Scotia, bringing each branch he managed to its potential. There was always a story or a joke to entertain and lift your spirits. He was dapper to the end. His pride of his grandchildren was evident in the stories he told, and he would always embellish in their favour. His caring and devotion to his family will never be forgotten. He will be sadly missed by many friends and family. He will live on in all of us. Cremation has taken place under the care and direction of Ettinger Funeral Home, Shubenacadie, NS.
