Wanda Jean Perry's Obituary
Wanda Jean Perry, age 73, passed away Friday, March 17, 2023. She was born November 29, 1949 in Muskegon, MI to Gene and Edith (Scott) Jacobs and at the age of six was raised by her mother and step-father, Bobby Green. On January 1, 1998, she married her beloved partner, Terry L. Perry, in Muskegon. They were together 33 years and married for 25 years. Wanda and Terry farmed together and sold produce for many years in the Muskegon and Grand Rapids area. They enjoyed buying and selling antiques, sightseeing, gambling, and taking road trips to casinos. They also wintered in Florida for the past 15 years. But most importantly, she loved spending time with her children and grandchildren. Family was first and foremost to her. Wanda will be missed by many. She is survived by her husband of 25 years, Terry; two children: Troy (Kristina) VanVoorst and Shelli (Geremy) Stevens; two step-children: Craig (Rebecca) Perry and Kelly Perry; 12 grandchildren: Tia, Kirsha, Mike, Atreau, Kiley, Holland, Acacia, Gage, Nixon, Leighton, Hensley, and Reid; three great-grandchildren: Gemma, Ezrielle, and Isla; two brothers: Brian (Wendy) Green and Darrell Green; and three sisters: Nina (Dana) Green, Tina (Tim) King, and Catherine (Larry) Davis; and several nieces and nephews. Wanda was preceded in death by her parents. A Celebration of Wanda’s Life will be held at a later date and will be announced later.
