Willie Ola Pinkney Perry was born February 3, 1935 in Center Hill, Florida as a lone twin to the late Newbie Pinkney and Pauline Robinson. Willie Ola was affectionately known as Lo. She was reared with the love and support of her maternal grandparents Plummer Lee and Annie Mae Hicks. She attended the Sumter County Public School System.
Willie Ola moved to and settled in Western Palm Beach County as a young woman. With her desire to provide for her family, she worked numerous migrant jobs and Dennyโs. In her later (senior)years, she volunteered as a foster grandmother in the School District of Palm Beach County.
Willie Ola heard and obeyed the Shepherdโs voice in the late 1970s. She accepted Jesus as her Lord and Savior and became a faithful member and a diligent worker for Godโs Kingdom under the pastoral guidance of Superintendent Clarence Brown. Mother Perry proclaimed the need for Salvation according to John 3:16 to those (family, friends, coworkers, and strangers) she came in contact with and lived the Romans 12:1 life of a believer in Jesus.
On Sunday, March 28, 2021, just after 2pm in Lakeside Medical Center, our God called his servant Willie Ola Perry to rest from the labors of this present world. Willie Ola was preceded in death by her parents, Newbie Pinkney and Pauline Robinson; her eldest brother and sister, Roy Gene Pinkney and Rosetta Pinkney; her oldest daughter, Erma Lee Royals, and her youngest son; Andre Maurice Waters.
Willie leaves a legacy of love and service. Children: Harry (Audrey) Bellamy, Monica L. Millner, Sandra L. Pinkney, Joseph Tinsdell, Anthony (Sherell) Pinkney, Avon (Diane) Waters, Ava(Leonard) Smith, Claudette B. Allen, and Tracy (Phillip) Bates. Siblings: Reverend Al (Joyce) Robinson and Councilwoman Ruby R Mundens and a host of grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins and an extended family of Mother Margaret Hammond.
Today, I found myself reminiscing about Ms. Perry and considered giving her a call. To my surprise, a quick search revealed her passing. I had the privilege of meeting Ms. Perry during her volunteer work with the Foster Grandparent Program. She was a kind soul, and her words of wisdom were a constant source of comfort for me. My thoughts and prayers are with her family during this difficult time.
My condolences to Sandra Pinkney my sister, my best friend and family. May God embrace each and everyone in his loving care as you go through. Mother Perry will surely be missed but look at the love she left in such a wonderful family. May God continue to bless, keep and comfort you all. Love and blessings Jackie Hadley and family.
