Raymond Patrick Perkins

Ray was a wonderful husband and father who enjoyed spending time with family and his many amigas and amigos. Ray also enjoyed mentoring youth, primarily through baseball, a game that he thoroughly loved. He liked playing with his two huskies fur babies Koda & Bella, watching Pass-a- Grille sunsets, spending time in the North Carolina mountains and living in Tierra Verde Florida. Ray loved Miami Hurricanes football and everything about the ocean and Gulf. Ray is survived by his beloved and unquestioned love of his life, wife Lori Ann. His pride and joys were daughter Marley Blair Perkins who will be attending ASU University in Tempe and his son Damon Reed Perkins, a junior at St Petersburg High School.

Ray’s best friend other than his wife was his brother David Milton Perkins of Bakersville North Carolina. Ray also had a brother Jesse Mark Perkins and a sister Beverly Kay Perkins, both of Winter Park Florida. Ray will be missed by so many. In respect to his wishes, there will be no formal memorial service. In lieu of flowers, a Gofund me page has been established for his children’s education. (See link below)
