My condolences to all the family of Caroline Perry . She was a keeper and had a laugh that won’t be forgotten It was always fun to be around
Caroline, She had something to say about anything that came along. She was the fiestiest woman I ever came across. I will surely miss her Irish Temper and quick wit. I will never forget her and we will never be able to replace her as they threw away the mold once she was born. Your sister-in-law Erma O’Rourke.
My heart goes out to the Perry families and my thoughts and prayers are for Caroline. She was a special person in all our lives.
