Obituary of Margo Ellen Perry

It is with heavy hearts, but also with thanks to our Lord Jesus for the time we had together, that we announce the unexpected passing of Margo Perry, beloved wife of Rev. Walter E. Perry, on Thursday, May 6, 2021. Born January 7, 1947 in Renfrew, Ontario, she was a daughter of the late Andrew W. and Ellen M. (Naismith) Crozier.

Margo was a true partner in ministry with Walter. She enjoyed leading ladies Bible Studies, hosting teas, providing hospitality to anyone who came to her door, and, of course, whipped cream. Margo loved to worship, whether it was through song, piano, choir, prayer or reading scripture.

Graham (Rebecca) of Saint John; grandchildren: Asher and Abel of Brockville, and Nathan, Eli, and Micah of Saint John; sister, Frances Craig of Pembroke, ON; and several nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. Besides her parents, Margo was predeceased by her sister, Myrna McCutcheon; and brother, Donald Crozier.
