Stanley Perkins, 79, Adair County, KY (1938-2017)

He was a beloved Downtown Columbia person, a familiar figure one could rely on to liven up a day. He lived two blocks off the Columbia Square, and chose to walk most places he went, catching a ride with a friend for visits to nearby towns, hiring only an occasional cab to meet is active travel plans. He loved country music and had an encylopedic mind on the subject. He had a passion for playing cards, and was a master storyteller. He will be deeply missed. He was a member of a highly regarded South Central Kentucky family, the son of the late David & Louellen Perkins. He leaves one direct living descendant, William Stanley Perkins, Jr.
