September 30, 1918 — February 10, 2008
She is survived by her husband of 61 years, Adles Perry of Abbeville; daughter, Donna Perry of Abbeville; sister, Lucille H. Guidry of Abbeville; brother, Roy V. Hoffpauir of Abbeville and several very special nieces and nephews.

A native and life long resident of Abbeville, Thelma, better known as “Sister” to her family, was an avid flower gardener who especially enjoyed sharing her plants and cuttings with others. She also enjoyed sewing and loved to crochet beautiful Afghans for family and friends.
Traveling was another of her joys. She has been to 47 states in addition to Canada and Mexico. Listening to and singing hymns were tops on her list as her very favorite pastime. In addition to being a homemaker, she worked many years as a bookkeeper at the Abbeville Commission Company.
The family would like to extend special thanks and express sincere gratitude to the entire staff at Eastridge Nursing Center for their loving care, compassion and friendship. Your love, support and compassion touched our hearts and will forever be remembered.
Also, a very special word of thanks to Reverend John Vining and the wonderful church family at the Abbeville United Methodist Church for their prayers, support, compassion and comfort, all of which have been blessings beyond measure.
The family request that visiting hours be observed at Vincent Funeral Home, 209 South Saint Charles, Tuesday, February 12, 2008, from 9:00 a.m. until time of services.
