A memorial ser- vice was held Sunday, Aug. 26, at Valley View Assisted Living. Perry was born in Prairie City on June 23, 1931. He was raised all over Grant County but mostly lived at Antone. He has two stepbrothers and a stepsister. Perry joined the Air Force when he was 19 years old. He be- came a master sergeant and worked on the airplanes as an aircraft electrician. He was in the Air Force for 22 years. After he dis- charged from the military, he went to work as a guard for the Fed- eral Reserve Bank in Portland. He then worked as a custodian. Perry married Mary Gardner and they had three children and two adopted children. They were married for 36 years. After they divorced, he married Margaret Ann Hatterscheid in 1987. He has seven grandchildren and at least four great-grandchildren. Perry traveled to England, Guam and Saudi Arabia. He en- joyed fishing, watching the news, working on and driving cars, hunting and country music. He also raised cocker spaniels. Per- ry went to college when he was 70 years old to learn comput- ers and about writing. He wrote a book, “Dogs With The Right Stuff,” and published it. The book was a series of short stories about dogs from the dog’s point of view. Perry was a member of “Warbirds,” an Air Force club, and also a member of the Eagles Lodge. Perry moved to Valley View Assisted Living in May 2012. His hobbies included reading and crossword puzzles. He en- joyed watching travel movies about other countries, and loved spending time with his wife, Ann, and his favorite dog, Sable. To leave condolences for the family of Perry, visit driskill- memorialchapel.com. Sheriff Glenn Palmer, who looked up the details of the dispatch call, a “local intox- icated homeless person” had appeared at the front door of the sheriff’s office to “say hi,” and the jail staff had called for assistance from patrol staff. In the story about the Grant County Court’s objections to the Blue Mountains Forest Plan, the Eagle reported that the court adopted objections made by the Forest Access For All group. Commissioner Rob Raschio used a form from the group to draft a letter with the court’s objections and present- ed that letter to the court at its Aug. 15 special meeting. The objections in the letter the court submitted to the Forest Service were the objections of the court and were based on comments the court made in 2014. The Eagle regrets the er- rors.
