Howard E. Perry

Howard E. Perry, 66, Mooresville, passed away April 9, 2020, at Community Hospital South in Indianapolis. Howard was born May 17, 1953, in Charleston, West Virginia, to the late Thomas B. and Anna Mae (Nichols) Perry.

Although Howard dealt with a number of setbacks and challenges with Cerebral Palsy, he had many more victories that should be celebrated. He was employed at Noble Center for a number of years and continued his education and life lessons with St. Vincent New Hope. Through much perseverance, he eventually became a homeowner and took great pride in that success. He was an avid Colts fan, especially during the Peyton Manning days. He worked at the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis, Victory Field, and in various theaters through the years. He loved electronics, traveling, and enjoyed attending True Word Baptist Church in Indianapolis. Howard will be fondly remembered by his loving family.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by sisters, Mildred Marie Holcomb and Verna L. “Trudy” Holcomb and brothers, Thomas B. Perry, Jr. and John W. Perry.

Survivors include a sister, Pamela G. Moses of Mooresville; three brothers, Michael C. & Paulette Perry of Martinsville, Vernon R. “Tony” & Ruby Perry of Greencastle, and Harold E. “Shorty” & Margaret Perry of Indianapolis; many nieces and nephews.

A small, private family service will be observed on Wednesday, April 15, 2020 at the Carlisle – Branson Funeral Service & Crematory, Mooresville. Burial will be at Floral Park Cemetery, Indianapolis, alongside his parents.
