He died peacefully at home on Saturday November 6th, 2004. Perris was born at Heber City, Utah on February 5, 1902 to goodly parents. His father, James C. Jensen was serving a missionary call for the LDS Church, a mission which lasted for 23 years. His mother was Ward or Stake Relief Society President during all of the years that Perris was growing up. Perris was a member of the first Boy Scout troop in Wasatch County. Eventually he became an Eagle Scout. During World War I he sold Liberty Bonds under a nation-wide program called "Every Scout to Save a Soldier." For this, after the war, he was awarded, by the U.S. Treasury Dept. a medal and a banner which he treasured all his life and displayed on special occasions. Perris was active in the LDS Church. He served in some capacity almost continually for 85 years, starting at being called as the Secretary of his Deacons quorum up until the time he was temporarily blinded, caused by an attack of shingles which disabled him at age 96. His service included secretary of his priesthood quorums, member of MIA and Sunday School Stake Boards, Scoutmaster, two full time missions, one in Holland and one in Great Britain, High Priest Group Leader, Bishop's Counselor and Stake High Counselor; but he was primarily a teacher, in the MIA. in his High Priest Quorum and in the Sunday School where he taught the Gospel Doctrine class for 26 years. When he was 75 years old he was called as Stake Leader of the Name Extraction Program. He and his crew of up to 42 faithful workers extracted and submitted to Church Headquarters for temple work, over two million names. He continued in this program until crippled by the shingles. Perris dropped out of High School, he supposed for a year, to get out of debt. He didn't get back to school for over sixty years. He completed his correspondence law course, passed the bar examination and practiced law for over 60 years. On Dec. 31, 1941, 24 days after the attack on Pearl Harbor, Perris was "drafted" by the U.S. Army and served as a civilian with the U.S. Division Engineers. After the war he resumed his legal practice, but limited his practice to Real Estate, Probate, Wills and Trusts. He taught classes at the Extension Division of both the University of Utah and at Westminster College in Real Estate Law. Finally, at age 77 he decided it was time to become educated. He applied at BYU for registration as a freshman. The registrar asked him why at his age he wanted to enter a university. Perris responded with two reasons: first, could he still do it and keep up with the "kids", and second, whatever he learned he planned to take with him into the hereafter. He was admitted, and four years later received his Bachelors Degree in Independent Studies and graduated as valedictorian of his class. Several months after his return from his mission to Holland, Perris married Gwen Williams, a daughter of David J. Williams and Martha Ann John Williams. The ceremony was performed in the Salt Lake Temple by Elder Orson F. Whitney of the Council of the Twelve. To them were born six children, Homer (Shirley), Wendell, (Maurine), Neil (Martha), Bruce (Diane), Arlene (Wife of Gary C. Curtis) and Marilyn(wife of John B. Dougall.) Homer died June 15, 1970. The others survive. To these six children were born 37 grandchildren; 36 of whom still survive, 127 great-grandchildren, and four great-great-grandchildren.
