Deborah Perry

December 31, 1969 — July 28, 2020

Deborah Isobel Perry, 70, of Mathews, was called home to the Lord Tuesday, July

28, 2020 at home surrounded by her children. Debby was born in Windsor, Nova

Scotia on May 18, 1950, to Ralph Parsons and Elizabeth Mary Cochrane.

She was a parishioner at the Church of St. Francis De Sales in Mathews, Virginia. Debby

was an active member in her church, teaching Sunday school and taking time for

missions especially in Haiti. When her children were young, she could be found

on the sidelines of every softball and soccer game and at every chorus concert,

cheering the loudest. She helped many young ladies as a Girl Scout leader and

camp counselor for Brownie Troop 1263 and Junior Troop 379 in Plymouth,

Massachusetts. She was an avid Boston Red Sox fan, rooting for them every

chance she got. Debby was always happiest with her family, especially her

grandchildren. Her greatest titles were Wife, Mom, and Gramma.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Richard Francis Perry, her parents,

and sister, Wendy Maxie. She is survived by her three children, daughter Rachael

and her husband, Greg Lumpkin, and their children Savannah and Fred, of

Chesterfield, VA; daughter, Rebecca and her husband, Joe Molnar, and their

children Tommy and Kaitlyn, of Cary, NC; and son, Rich Perry and his children,

Audrina and Raiden, of Mathews; and two sisters Helen MacDonald and Lois

MacAskill.

A Mass of Resurrection will be celebrated at the Church of St. Francis De Sales on

Lovers Lane in Mathews on Tuesday, August 18, 2020 at 1:00 PM. Please notify
