Perry
July 14, 1927 – December 13, 2013
Dominic F. Perry, 86, passed away Friday, December 13, 2013 at St. Elizabeth Hospital with his loving family by his side. Mr. Perry was born on July 14, 1927 in Youngstown, the son of the late Frank and Barbara Perry. He served in the U.S. army in WWII. A lifelong resident of Youngstown, "Dom" was well known in the community as owner of Dom Perry Tailors and Haberdashery, established in the 1950's and frequented by many of Youngstown's fashionable men and women. In later years, he was owner/CEO of Daylight Cleaning Services. Dom had a true passion for the outdoors and enjoyed golf at Tippecanoe and Fonderlac Country Clubs for over 30 years. In later years his passion led him to his own backyard, where he filled many hours "clearing the woods" and building his famous bonfires. He was a devoted health enthusiast who enjoyed activities at the Youngstown YMCA and made many friends there. The real joy of Dom's life was his family. He is survived by his loving and devoted wife of 65 years, Laura (Santon) Perry, with whom he was blessed with five children: Carla (Paul) Evanoff, Youngstown, OH; Patricia (Gary) Fonzi, Danville, CA; Dominic (Peggy) Perry, Rocky River, OH; Theresa (Jim) Parks, Upper Arlington, OH and Anthony (Gail) Perry, Columbus, OH. In addition, Dom leaves nine grandchildren and two great-grandchildren: Paul (Alyssa) Evanoff and children Gregory and Derek; Angela, Dominic (Juliet), Sara and Catherine Perry; Daniel and Elizabeth Fonzi; and Nicholas and Perry D'Angelo.
