JOHN ALEXANDER PERRIE
After a lengthy illness, John
Alexander Perrie passed away in
his 90th year, at the Queensway
Nursing Home, Hensall, Sunday,
June 14, 1998.
Born Jan. 18, 1909 in Grey Twp.,
he lived his entire life as a farmer
on the 12th Concession of Grey. He
was the younger son of James and
Jessie (McNair) Perrie.
He will be sadly missed by Clara
(McCall) Perrie, his beloved wife
of over 60 years. Mr. Perrie will be
lovingly remembered by his
children David and Joan Perrie of
Walton, Jeanne Kirkby of Walton,
John and Mary Perrie of Grey
Twp., Will and Chi Perrie of
Halifax, N.S., and Leslie Perrie of

that church. His children remember
their father as an honest and devout
man who considered humility to be
a virtue. They also remember his
love for all animals, especially
border collies, Clydesdale horses
and cattle; a man who worked hard,
but always enjoyed visiting and
talking with friends.
