Perry was the anesthesiologist on many of my cases over the years. He was always a ‘professionals’ professional and a man that I looked up to and wished I was more like him in many ways.  I remember how proud he was of his daughter who was at Brown University.  It was truly an honor being in his presence. May God bless him and love him.

Remembering Perry

Perry and I first met as classmates at MIT, and from those early days, he became my closest and dearest friend. We grew up together in the most formative years of our lives — young, hopeful, and full of questions about the future. He was the friend with whom I shared so many treasured moments, small and large, that would come to define who I am.

We often dined at Joyce Chen’s, a humble little restaurant in Cambridge that became our refuge from the pressures of school. We played endless games of ping pong, shared an ice cream cone at midnight, and marched together down the Infinite Corridor on our way to class. Later in life, we stood side by side in each other’s weddings — a reflection of how deeply our friendship had become woven into each other’s lives.

It was Perry who first convinced me to choose anesthesiology as my specialty during medical school — a choice that shaped the entire course of my professional life. His insight and steadiness guided me, as they always did. Perry was that rare kind of friend who quietly gave strength just by being there — someone I could always lean on, confide in, and trust.

When I learned of his sudden passing, the shock was immediate and visceral — as though the ground had shifted beneath me. Even though our lives eventually took us to different cities, we stayed in close touch. No matter the distance, Perry was always only a phone call away. His friendship was constant, a comforting presence that time and geography could never diminish.

Perry’s kindness, humility, and generosity of spirit left a lasting mark on me and Wendy, my wife. He had an easy laugh, a calm wisdom, and a genuine care for others that made people feel understood and valued.

I miss him deeply. Yet even in this loss, I find comfort in knowing that his influence lives on — in the choices I make, in the values I hold dear, and in the memories that still bring a quiet smile. Perry’s friendship was one of the great gifts of my life.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Dr Liu was one of the best Anesthesia  doctors in Tucson. Sincerely J. Wainwright.

Though we only know Perry less than a year, we’re so proud to be connected through our son’s recent marriage of his loving daughter, Amanda. We cherish the brief time we spent with him and his family in San Francisco. Our thoughts are with the family at this difficult time. May he rest in eternal peace.

I always enjoyed working with Dr. Lui.  He was a genuine, kind man with a quiet sense of humor.  Always took great care of all the people entrusted  in his care. This included staff and fellow Drs.  he worked with every day. 
  My prayers for comfort and peace for his family .

My sincere condolences to the Liu family. It just breaks my heart that he will not be able to enjoy his time with family in his retirement.  He was definitly taken too soon...
Perry was one who I'd desribe as  rock solid; on everyones "A list," while at the same time being so humble, quite, and unassuming. He was dependable, never late or complained.  However if  you asked him about his children, that would always bring a smile and a short conversation for well deserved parental"bragging rights". You always knew things would go well with Dr. Liu at the head of the table.

May God bless this man.  Perry was a partner of mine at SAA for 20 years.   Always such a good man and doctor.  Always willing to help.  Always showed such pride and love for his children and family.   It was obvious to all that his humble heart worked to provide.  

One of my scariest moments in my career involved Perry.  We all responded to help when we heard overhead pages for partners in need…So many different situations in my career involved helping another partner.  The time I heard for “anyone anesthesia to come to OR 19 Stat”, I knew it was Perry’s room.  When I got there, all was good.  A difficult but controlled airway.   The scary part was running to OR 19!  Perry NEVER needed help… so I knew it must be bad and was prepared for the worst…. That was the reason for scary!   Very few anesthesiologists I’ve ever met would cause me to feel such a way.  
May God bless your family Perry. They and you are in our prayers.

I am so sorry about Dr Liu passing. 
He was a kind, intelligent,  compassionate, wonderful man. I cannot say enough good about him. 
I knew when he was part of the crew at work we would have a great day. 
He will be missed not only for his expertise but also will be missed as a great human.

Perry was the kindest person we ever worked with.
He was soft-spoken and gentle. He was always calm under pressure and a beacon for us especially as new anesthesiologists fresh from residency. He not only taught us so much in the operating room, his pride for his amazing children taught us so much about parenting. He urged us to get our son involved with John's Hopkins Center for Talented Youth. We will always be grateful for the memories and quiet friendship with Perry. May your family be given strength during this difficult time. Rest in peace Dr.
Liu.
Drs. Elson & Annette Revak

My family is deeply saddened by the sudden unexpected passing of our brother-in-law and our children's uncle Perry.  As a believer in Christ, he loved God and obeyed the Lord's commands wholeheartedly.  He was humble, gentle, generous, kind, and was committed to care to the best of his abilities  those related to him, his own family, his parents, his patients, and my family through my younger sister, his wife.  We will miss his physical presence, but we have hope in Christ that we will be together with Christ at His second coming.
