Rosa (Medeiros) Perry, 93, passed away on Feb. 15, 2017 at St. Elizabeth Manor. She was the wife of the late John Duarte Perry.  

Born in Ludlow, Mass., she was the daughter of the late Joseph and Gilemena (Costa) Medeiros. She is survived by her children, Mary Almeida and her husband, Arthur, and Manuel Perry and his wife, Cathy; grandchildren Wendy and her husband Adam Clifford, Laurie and her husband Craig Carvalho, Lisa Perry, John and his wife Gina Perry, Emily and her husband Jacob Begin; great grandchildren Lauren Securo, Jeremy Securo, Jacob Perry and Nicholas Perry; and brother Manuel Medeiros.

Mrs. Perry’s funeral services were held Feb. 20 from the George Lima Funeral Home, with a Mass of Christian Burial celebrated by Rev. Barry Gamache at St. Mary’s Church. Liturgical readings were by Gina Perry and Jacob Perry. The offertory gifts were presented by Jacob Perry and Nicholas Perry. The eulogy was given by Lisa Perry. Burial followed in St. Mary’s Cemetery. Serving as pallbearers were Adam Clifford, John Perry, Jacob Perry, Jacob Begin, Jeremy Securo and Craig Carvalho.

Rose’s family would like to thank the wonderful staff and volunteers at St. Elizabeth Manor for the loving personal care and attention they provided her over the years. They truly helped us through the difficult transition from home that she loved so dearly, to a home that received her as family and comforted her in every possible way. We would also like to thank her devoted friends Pam, Patty, Andrea, Rosemarie and Sara who visited often and gave her such pleasure.

Memorial donations may be made to St. Elizabeth Manor Activities Fund, 1 Dawn Hill, Bristol RI, 02809.
