Stephen Ray Perry, age 69, of Lawrenceburg, TN, passed away on October 17, 2025, at Countryside Healthcare. He was a beloved member of the community, known for his dedication to his work as a bricklayer and his service as a member of the VFW. Stephen was a man of faith, a devoted Christian who shared his love for Jesus with his family and others. He found joy in spending time with his grandchildren, especially when fishing with them.
Stephen is survived by his five children: Brian Perry and Leanne Perry of Lawrenceburg, TN, Richard Perry of FL, Angela Osepczuk of NY, and William Wayne Osepczuk Jr. of Knoxville, TN. He is also survived by his two brothers, Timothy Perry and Richard A. Perry, both of Lawrenceburg, TN, as well as six grandchildren, six great-grandchildren, and several nieces and nephews.
The Loretto Memorial Chapel is in charge of all arrangements. Stephen will be dearly missed by all who knew him, and his memory will live on in the hearts of his loved ones. May he rest in peace.
