Obituary for Brenda Sue Perkins-Lantz
Brenda Sue Perkins-Lantz, 71, of Bridgeport, passed away Friday evening, November 14, 2014, after a very brief illness. She was born in Clarksburg on October 16, 1943, a daughter of the late Wilson Lang Perkins and Ida Ellen Wright Perkins. After her mother died, she was raised by her grandmother, Vance Perkins.
She is survived by her husband of 50 years, Larry Lantz, whom she married on January 9, 1964.
Also surviving are her step-mother, Ruth Perkins-Dennis; her sisters, Sheila Perkins Mazurek and her husband Frank; Fran Perkins-Paul and her husband Skip; Marilyn Perkins-Novak and her husband Scot; Michelle Perkins-Simpson and her husband David; and Tracey Perkins-Richardson and her husband Paul; two brothers, Jeff Perkins and his wife Patty; and Lanny Perkins, all of Uniontown, PA; and several nieces and nephews.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her daughter, Valerie Ann Lantz; a sister, Glenda Perkins-Davis; and a brother, Kevin Perkins.
Brenda was a graduate of Bridgeport High School, Class of 1961. She was the co-owner and operator of Hedges Motel for over 38 years. She enjoyed ceramics as a hobby, and was a passionate animal lover, especially taking in homeless cats, turning none away. She also enjoyed spending time with and going to yard sales with her very close friend, Marie Wasrud.
Friends will be received at Burnside Funeral Home, 607 S. Virginia Avenue, Bridgeport, from 2-4 & 6-8 p.m. on Monday, where services will be held at 12:30 p.m. on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, with Reverend O.D. Harman presiding. Interment will follow in WV National Cemetery.
