It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of CHAD ERIN FREDERICK PERKINS on Wednesday, September 3, 2008 at the age of 36. He leaves to mourn his mother Beverly Perkins of Lethbridge, his sisters Kim (Dean) Hankey of Lethbridge, and Lisa (Douglas) Bergen of Coaldale and his eight nieces and nephews. Chad was predeceased by his father, Fred Perkins, November 2006. Chad grew up in Lethbridge and in his younger years enjoyed playing minor baseball. He had become an accomplished drummer and often played in various bands. He worked at several restaurants and other jobs both in Lethbridge and Calgary. Chad will be greatly missed by his family, friends and the family dog, B.J. He was a wonderful support to his mom as they both grieved the loss of Dad. His life ended much too soon. He had so much more to achieve and experience. We are grateful for the time we had with him. We’ll miss your smiles and hugs Chad. A Celebration of Life will be held at CORNERSTONE FUNERAL HOME, 2800 Mayor Magrath Drive South, Lethbridge, AB on Monday, September 8th, 2008 at 2:00 p.m. with Pastor Wayne Boersma, officiating. In memory of Chad, memorial tributes may be made to the Lethbridge Humane Society (SPCA), Box 783, Lethbridge, AB T1H 3Z6.
