James Thomas Perry

In Loving Memory of

James Thomas Perry

August 25, 1947 - September 20, 2026

Jim was a jack-of-all-trades and master of most.  He loved his family, friends, and country.  Some of his fondest memories were working on his family’s farm during the summer as a young man.  He also enjoyed traveling the country taking many memorable trips over the years. He traveled on separate adventures with his mother, brother-in-law Melvin, and son.  He also shared the open road with his best friend, Lou, taking several motorcycle trips together.  He dedicated his life to serving his country, first in the Army fighting in Vietnam where he achieved Specialist 5 (E-5) rank in only two years and then at the Post Office where he worked for over 39 years and was affectionally known as Buck.

Jim is survived by daughter Maria Campbell (Doug); son James Perry (Silvia); grandchildren Vicky Perry (Justin), Kassandra Perry, Rachel Campbell, Tommy Campbell; and brother Dave Perry (Beth). He was predeceased by parents Cordell Perry and Inez Perry (Gilbert) and sisters Barbara Ann Perry and Nancy Hoggard.

A graveside service will be held at Arlington National Cemetery on a pending date that will be provided when scheduled.
