Telica Ann Perry, 48, of Krum, went home to be with her Lord on September 13, 2009. She passed away at home after a two year battle with Dementia and ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease).



She was born in Gainesville on July 13, 1961 to Lewis and Frances Beaver Hyde. She was a devoted wife and mother. She was a founding member of Northgate Pentecostals of Colleyville. She was a gifted singer who used her gifts to lead worship. Her passions included cooking, camping, and spending time with her family. Her illness never effected her attitude.



Survivors include the love of her life, Kelly Perry, her husband of 27 years, and her two children who have followed her in serving her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, Luke and Kelsey Perry of Krum, her mother Frances Hyde of Burleson, her sisters and brothers in law Tammie and Gregg Hogan of Arlington, Gina and Rev. Brent Jones of Keller, and numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.



Telica was preceded in death by her father Lewis Hyde, her half-sister Marion Kaye Rosenthal, and her father in law Joe B. Perry.



Pall bearers will be David Law, Billy Johnson, Tim Fisher, Darrell Mayo, Randel Beaver, and Jeremy Wilhoit. Honorary pall bearer will be Mike Hyde.
