Mildred Louise Perry's Obituary
Mildred Niday Perry, born Feb 20th,1939, passed away peacefully on July 2nd at the Wyngate Assisted Living Home in Proctorville, Ohio. She was preceded in death by her loving husband of nearly 66 years, Carl Perry, who passed away in February at the family's home in Chesapeake. Mildred was the daughter of Glen and Kathryn Niday of Huntington WV, and she was the last remaining sibling of 10 brothers and sisters that passed on before her. She is survived by her son, Mark (Melody) of Sunset Beach NC; two grandchildren, Madison of Wilmington NC and Hayden of Charlottesville VA, as well as several nephews and nieces that loved her dearly. Mildred taught Children's Church for more than 40 years at First Baptist Church, Proctorville, and she was a founding members of the church daycare center known as Kinder-Kare. During her years at Kinder-Kare she touched many young lives of the children she cared for, and she truly loved each and every one of those children as if they were her own. Mildred's influence and nurturing would continue to be reflected in those young lives for many years to come as they grew into adults having families of their own. Proverbs 31: 10-31 highlights the many traits of a Virtuous Woman that include being of noble character, with wisdom and strength, as well as having deep love and devotion to her family, her husband and to God. Mildred was all of those things and more. She will be greatly missed by her family and by all who knew her, but she will live on through her testimony and witness for God, and in the hearts of the many children and their families that she loved and cared for throughout her life. Funeral services were previously held by Hall Funeral Home and Crematory in Proctorville, OH. Burial was at Rome Cemetery in Proctorville, OH.
