Charles Edward Perry, 73, born February 24, 1948 passed away peacefully at his home July 17, 2021. Charlie was a 1966 graduate of Clintwood High School, retired VDOT Employee and a member of VFW Post 9600, Pound, VA.

Charlie was preceded in death by his parents Homer and Goldie Perry, grandparents Liza and Lem Perry, Julia and Carton Fleming. One brother in law Gary Willis, a special cousin Billy Ray Davis, two great-nieces Rilynn Isabella and Railynn Brooke Wright, and a special aunt Ettie Hamilton.

He is survived by two sisters Wilma (Steve) McCoy, Abingdon, VA and Marlene Willis Clintwood, VA; two nieces Sandra (Ray) Harvey, Clintwood, VA and Julie (Wayne) Watts, Wise, VA; one nephew Tommy (Diane) Willis, Clintwood, VA; two great-nieces Amanda Wright, Clintwood, VA and Lexi Willis, Clintwood, VA; three great nephews Luke Watts, Wise VA, Liam Willis, Clintwood, VA, and Landon Price, Clintwood, VA, a special cousin/sister Linda Sue Carty along with a host of cousins and friends.

Charlie entered the U.S. Army after high school and served his country in Korea.

Charlie had a smile that would light up a room. He was a joy to all who knew him. Charlie loved to joke and prank anyone he could. After retiring he enjoyed evenings at Hardee's and McDonald's with his friends. He loved calling his family and friends just to say "hello" and "what are you doing." Charlie loved the Lord and would share his testimony among friends and strangers alike. All who knew him would agree the Lord was first in his life, followed by family, his love of automobiles and politics. Charlie also loved a good game of Monopoly and Rook, spending time at the cabin and eating….especially breakfast!

The family will receive friends Tuesday, July 20th beginning at 5 pm at the Clintwood Funeral Home Chapel. A song service will begin at 7 pm. Funeral services will be conducted Wednesday, July 21st at 1 pm with Steve McCoy and George Wallace officiating. Burial will follow at the Perry Cemetery, Ventura Road, Camp Creek. Pallbearers: Clynis Phillips, Chris Yates, Jeremy Fleming, Bobby Hammonds, Lyndale Branham and Tommy Willis. Honorary Pallbearers: Steve McCoy, Ray Harvey, Wayne Watts, Earl Perry, Dane Hamilton, Paul Bloodgood, Bill Boyd, Donald Baker, Donald Earl Perry, Danny Lambert, Johnny Deloach and Roy Strouth.
