Here are the details for the service from Henry's Son:

My father's funeral service will be held at 11:15a.m. on Monday, November 5, 2007 at the Massachusetts National Cemetery in Bourne. Here a few specifics on my father and his military service:
  • Falmouth, Mass resident Henry C. Perry, 89 year old World War II, United States Marine Corps, 4th Marine Raider battalion.  Prior to the war's outbreak, he also served honorable in the United States Merchant Marines and the United States Coast Guard.
Here are the instructions from the Funeral director: "Arriving about 15 minutes early is fine.  Just park and go into the office and let them know you are there.  The committal service will be held at one of the cemetery's two 'shelters'.  You don't go straight to the grave.  There are two gentlemen who alternatively escort all the funerals to those shelters so when 11:15am arrives one of them will come over and introduce himself to the family and give some instructions and answer any questions.  The cars then follow him to the shelter.  Usually the priest and the military will be at the shelter ahead of time and are waiting for family and friends.  The priest says a brief service then he gives a cue to the military to play taps and unfold then fold the flag and present it to a family member.  At that time you can play the pipes if you wish."
Please contact me if you need any further information or assistance. Again, thank you so much to you and the other members of the Massachusetts Patriot Guard.
Ralph Perry

I would like to extend my deepest condolences to the family and friends of this American Hero who stood tall for his homeland in this very sad time in your lives, but remember that you knew a hero first hand while the rest of us just get to hear about their heroic deeds. My prayers are that our GOD may bring peace and comfort to all of you during this tragic time. Please know that not just me , but a country full of people like me owe you a dept that can never be repaid. But please know that your loved one is now serving in the Army of our LORD in heaven, and the LORD said if I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again and recieve you unto myself that where I am there you may be also. Know that it says in the Bible in 2nd Corinthians 5:8 , we are confident I say , willing rather to be absent from the body and present with the LORD. No one can ever say that your loved one isn't a HERO, they were willing to serve that the rest of us may enjoy the freedom we do today, and the sacrifice you and your family have endured so our nation can remain the home of the free because of the brave. We are all brothers and sisters in arms and we don't forget one of our own, rest in peace my comrade, your mission is complete and now it's time for you to rest. May GOD Bless each and everyone of you.

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Henry C. Perry, USMC/WWII Veteran. May God help you though this difficult time and sorrow. He is one of America's Heroes that will never be forgotten.

Rest Safely and Securely in God's Loving Arms, Henry.
 
Going home, going home,
I'm just going home.
Quiet-like, slip away-
I'll be going home.
It's not far, just close by;
Jesus is the Door;
Work all done, laid aside,
Fear and grief no more.
Friends are there, waiting now.
He is waiting, too.
See His smile! See His hand!
He will lead me through.


Morning Star lights the way;
Restless dream all done;
Shadows gone, break of day,
Life has just begun.
Every tear wiped away,
Pain and sickness gone;
Wide awake there with Him!
Peace goes on and on!
Going home, going home,
I'll be going home.
See the Light! See the Sun!
I'm just going home.

Another Mother asked President Truman, "Why did my Child have to die in Korea?" Another Mother asked President F.D. Roosevelt,"Why did my Child have to die at Iwo Jima ?" Another Mother asked President W. Wilson, "Why did my Child have to die on the battlefield of France ?" Yet another Mother asked President Lincoln,"Why did my Child have to die at Gettysburg ?" And yet another Mother asked President G.Washington, "Why did my Child have to die near Valley Forge?" Long, long ago a Mother (Mary) asked, "Heavenly Father, why did my Child have to die on a cross outside Jerusalim?" All the answers are so near the same. One died to save our Souls and the others died to protect our Freedoms.
