Ronald D. Perry passed away at his home in Parrish, Florida on Saturday, February 5, 2022 following a seven month battle with cancer. He was 71 years old. Ron was a decorated veteran who served in Alpha Co., 1st BN Seventh Marines in Vietnam. He was the recipient of two purple hearts, a navy commendation with combat V as well as numerous other medals. He was a talented musician who played guitar and keyboards in multiple bands around the Cincinnati area for over 40 years. The entertainer in him never disappeared.

He was the brother to Robert Perry Jr., Dennis Perry, Connie Birtcil, John Perry, and Christine (Dan) Shannon. He is also survived by his children Pamela Perry, Steven (Samantha) Perry and Melanie Perry; his grandchildren Olive, Nathan, Kyle, Isabella, and Bayani; many wonderful cousins, nieces, and nephews.
