There are positively no words in any American dictionary that could describe the bond that was created in 8 months with this amazing man. It's ironic how you walk into a home with all your paperwork, goals, assessment tools, and a head full of experience and knowledge, yet, while clinical interventions were periodically utilized {with Perky's approval of course). Anytime we walked into Perky's home we had work that needed to be completed prior to leaving(with Perky's permission) and gernally the work was completed. You would walk out of Perky's door and instead of thinking about your assessments and such or the visit you were now headed to, you would yourself waling to your vehicle with the biggest grin on your face and a thought in your head that went something like this, "Wow! Another visit with the man possessed with courage longer than his property, a mind with an unbelieveable intelligence base exceeding many 30 year olds, with a great sense of with to boot, and I'm the one who felt so grateful to have so may opportunities to spend time talking to him. He was soft spoken but, which didn't matter because his love for Jesus spoke loud and clear. Because of this, my comfort is knowing he is in heaven dancing with Vyda. Selfishly I miss him and knowing in this life I will see him no more. You know what though, I woudln't change a thing. He used to call me a nicklame that ohly my family members call me which is thought was so cool. The person arriving at him home on the days I was to stop and see him would hopen the door to hear Perky anounce, "Chrissy's coming today." I can't wait to see you again. Until then my friend, remember the deal you and I made for when you first get to heaven. ;) <3
