*Obituary
Lee Esther Perry symbolized her dedication in baptism in 1976. In her earlier years, she was quite zealous in the ministry. She often enjoyed preparing meals and sharing in the encouraging company of her fellow brothers and sisters, pioneers, and circuit overseers. She was a very loving person, and a stranger to no one, she showed that love by feeding all that she met, but above all she loved her family. However, when her health began to decline, she maintained her zealous spirit by participating in phone witnessing, and encouraging her children with the message of Jehovah.
Lee Esther was proceeded in death by her parents, Willie and Ethel Hawkins, her brother, Willie Hawkins, Jr., her sister, Porchia Anna Frazier, her husband Joe Edward Perry, Sr., and her daughter, Wanda Diana Richardson.
She is survived by her sister Deloris Thomas (George Thomas), her children; Henry Hawkins, Dorthy Adams, Nathaniel Perry (Rose), Stephanie Foster (Quitman), Joe Perry, Jr. (Carolyn), Ricky Perry (Teresa), Yolanda King, and a host of grand and great-grandchildren, as well as many nieces and nephews.
A memorial service will be held 1:00 pm on Thursday, October 17 at the Kingdom Hall Of Jehovah's Witnesses, 1335 Strong Hwy, El Dorado, AR. As per her wishes, Mrs. Perry's cremation was arranged and facilitated by Henderson Funeral Service, Magnolia, AR
