LISLE LORRAINE PERKINS (nee POUNDER) 1915 - 2005 It is with great sorrow we announce the passing of Lisle Lorraine Perkins at the age of 89 years. Lisle brought sunshine into other people's lives. A woman of keen wit, she brought happiness, joy, and laughter wherever she went. Lisle was a beautiful person, inside and out - and until the end, never failed to totally charm all people that met her. Left to mourn her passing are her husband and life companion, Egerton (Ed) Perkins; her daughters, Judith (Dennis), Linda (Ron), Kathryn (Mike); grandchildren, Terri, Greg, Doug, Chris (Megan) and Kate (Jay); and great-grandchildren, Matthew, Stuart, and Fiona. This year we expect two new great-grandchildren who will have never met their great-grandma. Her younger brother Douglas is also left to mourn her loss.

I enjoyed outings with your Mom for haircuts, groceries and lunch. We talked and laughed a lot about life and family and she always gave me good advice.The most remembered is "the apple never falls far from the tree". She was always keenly interested in other people, talking to everyone we met when we were out. She was a pleasure to be around. I will miss her. - Posted by: Donna (Friend) on: Jun 13, 2005
