Passed away: Tuesday 7th November 2006
Funeral: Wednesday 22nd November 2006
Aged: 21
Dad: Phil

Perry was a fantastic person who lived his life to full.
As Suzi says “if Perry wanted something, he’d get it, if he wanted to do something, he’d do it, no matter how long or how much it cost, he’d do it" He lived his dreams. Every person Perry met he touched their hearts and has left an everlasting memory. He was a charmer, always smiling, always making people laugh (especially when having a tantrum hey Liz?) and he was intelligent. Although he didn’t always show it, Perry was really clever; he just played dumb, it wouldn’t suit his image being a “goodie-2-shoes”.
Perry had loads going for him, he wanted to see and do so many things and he always looked to the future. He never hated anyone; always saw the good in everyone he met. He was outgoing, funny, a good listener and was always there for you, no matter what. If you needed him, he’d be there. He was a popular lad had so many good friends.
He loved his cars and playing on his playstation. He had a mini-moto which he loved to go out and play on with his best mate Jim and his dad (when it wasn’t too hot or too wet or look like it was going to rain!). He also loved to watch American Chopper with his dad on Mondays and winding his mum up telling her to wear thick jumpers when she went out up town!! He loved his sister dearly and always looked out for her. He always said anyone that messes with his sister messes with him.
Perry and Suzi were together for nearly 2 years, but it seemed like Suzi had always been apart of our family.
Perry loved her so much. I had never seen him be so loved up and serious about a girl before. They definitely would have got married and that would have made my mum and dad so happy!
For Suzi's birthday Perry bought her a car. He was so proud of doing it and he even managed to keep it a secret from her which was hard for Perry. Every chance Perry had to spend with Suzi he did.
Perry spent a lot of time last year (2006) going to Devon with Suzi. He loved it there. Before they had even left Devon Perry always asked when they could go back again.
Perry and Suzi were saving for their snowboarding holiday in January. It was a challenge getting him to save but he done it. They did an 8-hour day course snowboarding at Tamworth and joined the gym to get fit for their 2 weeks of snowboarding. Both were really looking forward to it. Perry was an active person, couldn’t stay in and do nothing and was always the first to try something new. He never let a challenge pass without giving it a go.
Losing Perry so unexpectedly was heart breaking. No words can describe the pain you go through. You feel like you can’t go on any more and each day just drifts on day-by-day, but the support from everyone, friends and family, has kept us going strong.
Perry has left so many good memories with us all and none of which any of us will forget.
Sweet dreams Perry.
Love, missed and thought of everyday. xxx

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on snow
I am the sun on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled light
I am the soft star that shines at night
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there; I did not die
such a terrible loss
I have just come across your memorial for Perry what a waste of a young life full of promise and such a good looking boy i have a son the same age and i cant imagine my life without him loud music and all. i hope you all find peace and comfort and know that he is with you all the time thoughts and prayers with you all at this sad time
Thinking of you Perry
What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.
Never a day passes when your not thought of Perry, especially around this time of year! These cold foggy mornings always take me back xxx
Waiting at the Door
I can’t explain so deep inside
The very fabric of my soul
Only a heart that grieves such loss
Can ever truly understand
It’s like you’re waiting at the door
Until a loved one comes back home
You feel a longing in your heart
When they appear the longing stops
But in a loss that never ends
You’re always standing at that door
You feel the longing in the breeze
So incomplete and never filled
I cannot find the words to say
Just what it’s like to want forever
Never seeing them again
Just always waiting at the door
Alison Mary Dunn
If we are fortunate,
we are given a warning.
If not,
there is only the sudden horror,
the wrench of being torn apart;
of being reminded
that nothing is permanent,
not even the ones we love,
the ones our lives revolve around.
Life is a fragile affair.
We are all dancing
on the edge of a precipice,
a dizzying cliff so high
we can't see the bottom.
One by one,
we lose those we love most
into the dark ravine.
So we must cherish them
without reservation.
Now.
Today.
This minute.
We will lose them
or they will lose us
someday.
This is certain.
There is no time for bickering.
And their loss
will leave a great pit in our hearts;
a pit we struggle to avoid
during the day
and fall into at night.
Some,
unable to accept this loss,
unable to determine
the worth of life without them,
jump into that black pit
spiritually or physically,
hoping to find them there.
And some survive
the shock,
the denial,
the horror,
the bargaining,
the barren, empty aching,
the unanswered prayers,
the sleepless nights
when their breath is crushed
under the weight of silence
and all that it means.
Somehow, some survive all that and,
like a flower opening after a storm,
they slowly begin to remember
the one they lost
in a different way...
The laughter,
the irrepressible spirit,
the generous heart,
the way their smile made them feel,
the encouragement they gave
even as their own dreams were dying.
And in time, they fill the pit
with other memories
the only memories that really matter.
We will still cry.
We will always cry.
But with loving reflection
more than hopeless longing.
And that is how we survive.
That is how the story should end.
That is how they would want it to be.

Thinking of you more today than every day Perry.
xxx love always, Suzi xxx
SPECIAL STAR
When you feel lonely, when the person you love passes away,
Look to the night sky after a clear day.
The star that to you, appears to be bright,
Will be your loved one...looking upon you during the night.
The lights of Heaven are what shows through
As your loved one watches all that you do.
When you feel lonely for the one that you love,
Look to the Heavens in the night sky above.
Luv Sue xxxxxx
I miss you
Good was his heart,
his friendship so true,
loved and respected by all that he knew;
to a beautiful life came a sudden end;
but he died as he lived,
everyone's friend!
I bloody miss you Perry, oh so much! So many memories keep coming back every day, stupid little things but I treasure them all!
I know you was looking over your mum today wishing her a Happy Mothers day.
Love as always xxxxx Sweet Dreams
Forgetting you never darlin. Sitting at work, thinking.. can see your massive smile, hear your laugh and still feel your touch! You'll always be apart of me. A place in my heart will always be for you.
Love always, Suzi xxxxxxx
------------------------------------------------------
Don’t think I do not feel;
because you see no tears.
A river rages deep inside
of grief, and loss, and fears.
Just because I do not cry now,
don’t think my heart’s not broken.
I keep inside the misery
of words not to be spoken.
Sometimes I smile, or crack a joke,
so you won’t see the pain;
or notice how my hands will shake,
or how I’ve gone insane.
Each time I chance to think of him,
my heart is ripped asunder.
The loss I feel is mine alone.
you will not see my thunder.
------------------------------------------------------
His death has taught many things,
It's taught me to be concerned.
It's taught me to care for people,
And taught me to be happy.
To live life to the fullest,
To make him proud of me.
His death's showed me many things,
Including right from wrong.
Careful not to hurt anyone,
They might not be here long.
No drugs or alcohol here,
I've learned just what they do.
They hurt your precious body,
And rob your life from you.
I've been taught life is short,
So make sure you have a blast.
Live every day to the fullest,
As if it were your last.
I've been taught so much,
Most importantly, I'm strong.
I've learned that I can handle…
Anything that's going on.
If I made it through his death,
I can make it through anything.

Never Forgotten!
As much as I try and hide it, as much as I try and move on, I know your still the one for me! I miss you so much Perry, I never knew love could be so strong- even now!
I still ask the question "Why", I still need answers- I always will!! I often wonder back to that dreaded day. How things have changed since then!
I'll never get over losing you, no matter how hard I try, deep down there will always be a part missing.
Miss you millions Perry.
Love you to the moon and back a thousand times.
Sweet Dreams.
