Perry A. Boukind
Perry Alan Boukind died on Nov. 21, 2003, at Sierra Health Care Convalescent Hospital in Davis. He was 81.
He was born in Billings, Mont., on March 30, 1922. He served in the U.S. Army during World War II, spending his time in Central Europe, where he received a Purple Heart in 1944.
He married Mary Lenihan on Sept. 14, 1944, in Anaconda, Mont., during a two-week leave.
After returning from the war, he finished his studies and received a degree from the Montana School of the Mines. He worked for 35 years as a metallurgical engineer starting in Birmingham, Ala., then moving to San Francisco, then Sacramento.
In 1997, the couple moved to Davis to be closer to their daughter. He was a devoted and loving husband, father and grandfather, his family said.
After retirement, he volunteered, helping adults learn to read. He was energetic, good-natured and a great cook, his family said.
He is survived by his wife of 59 years, Mary Boukind; his daughter and son-in-law, Peggy and Dennis Younglove; and granddaughters Laura Younglove and Lisa Younglove and her husband Claudio Osses Henriquez.
A memorial service is planned for 2 p.m. Tuesday at Covell Gardens, 1111 Alvarado Ave.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the American Diabetes Association.
