Our beloved mother, Celeste Mae Perry, 89, passed away June 30, 2014 at Heritage Oaks Nursing Home of Lubbock. She was born Jan. 25, 1925 to George and Eula Morgan of Crossett, AR. In July 1945 she married Walter Perry Jr., in Paris TX, who served in World War II. Their marriage lasted 33 years until his death in 1978.
Our mom was always a hard worker and a wonderful nurturing mom to her family, a great cook; she could make the best corn bread dressing and chocolate & pecan pies. She will be deeply and forever missed.
