The Portland Observer, Thursday, July 28, 1932

Word was received in Portland Tuesday of the death at Oklahoma City of Mrs. 
Stella Perrigo, 86, a former well known resident of this village.  The body 
will be accompanied to Portland by her son, John W. Perrigo, and funeral 
services held from the Congregational church this afternoon.

Mrs. Perrigo was the widow of the late Isaac S. Perrigo, who for many years 
was identified with Portland’s business activities, having been a member of 
the firm of Hinman & Perrigo which conducted a wagon shop on the site now 
occupied by the Wheeler jewelry store and the building recently vacated by 
Lehman’s clothing store, later moving to quarters now occupied by E. L. 
Goodwin’s monument works on Maple street.

During her younger days and before her marriage to Mr. Perrigo, Mrs. Perrigo 
taught school here, many of the town’s older residents having taken their 
first lesson in the rudiments of the three R’s under her tutelage.

Besides the son who will accompany the body to Portland, she is survived by 
another son, Charles, who also resides in the west.  A son, Glenn, died a 
number of years ago.
