Perry was a very kind, loving and generous man who never met a stranger. He was always willing to help someone in need. He would give them his last dime if he felt they needed help. His generosity was taken advantage of at times by people who claimed to be friends but were certainly not. He did indeed have a multitude of true friends who would be with him through good times and bad. He liked going to the beach and loved fishing. Perry loved his family and was said to have lived life to the fullest. Mr. Crain is survived by two brothers: Robert Crain (Brenda) of Inman, SC and Mike Crain (Laurie) of Elk Grove, California.
