Today we’re remembering the life of William E. Perrin, 81, of Ashaway. Born in Westerly, in 1939, William retired after 20 years of service with the United States Air Force. He worked as a Technical Sergeant and an investigator in the Office of Special Investigations. After retiring from the service, William worked with Aetna Pumps and UBS Building Supplies as a truck driver before retiring again. William enjoyed being outdoors, traveling and spending time with his loving wife, Sandra. William also enjoyed watching his grandchildren's activities.
He leaves his children, his grandchildren, and his great-granddaughter.
William also leaves two sisters and two brothers, and many nieces, nephews and cousins.
Thank you for taking a moment with us today to remember and celebrate William’s life.
That’s it for today, we’ll be back next time with more! Also, remember to check out our sponsor Perennial, Daily Gut & Brain, available at the CVS on Main St. in Wakefield!
