ROWLEY, MA — A GoFundMe page has been created to raise monies for a scholarship fund to honor Glen R. Perley, a family man who passed away in a tragic car accident last week. Perley was the Director of Sales at Homans Associates on Ballardvale Street in Wilmington at the time of his passing. He had worked for the company for 19 years.
The GoFundMe page reads:
On March, 30th, 2016, Glen R. Perley – beloved husband, father, brother, and son – was tragically taken from this world in a car accident on Interstate 95 in Newbury, MA.
Glen’s life was cut short by this tragedy, but his time on Earth was full of love and happiness. He will live on forever in the hearts and memories of the countless family members and friends he touched along the way.
As a tribute to his wonderful life and to ensure that he continues to make a positive and lasting impact on the world, Glen’s wife Doreen Perely is creating the Glen R. Perley Memorial Scholarship. To honor Glen’s love of the sport of ice hockey, this scholarship will be awarded annually as long as funds last to a deserving youth from Glen’s home town of Rowley, MA to help them attend hockey camp. Doreen is currently in the process of establishing the criteria for awarding this scholarship.
In lieu of flowers at his funeral or other gifts, the Perley Family humbly requests that you make your generous contributions here. All of the money raised by this campaign will be utilized to fund this scholarship that will become another part of Glen Perley’s lasting legacy.
