Leo Perry

Leo Ray Perry, 85, of Pryor, passed away on Friday, October 30, 2020 at his home. He was born on January 2, 1935 in Cederdale, Oklahoma; the son of Ross and Beulah (Hunsaker) Perry. He started in the laundry business and had three different laundromats in Pryor and also ran a dairy in Pryor. Leo then started working for the City of Pryor. He was the foreman at the Pryor Creek Golf Course for many years, and then moved to the Parks Department and retired from the City after more than 30 years.

He was a wonderful father and grandfather and leaves behind many wonderful memories for his family to remember.
