Obituary of Elvis James Perrigan

Elvis Perrigan, of Doniphan, Missouri, passed away unexpectedly Monday, December 4^th, 2023.

A lover of the outdoors, Elvis was always up for an adventure. Always known to wear his heart on his sleeve, Elvis notoriously loved others with a level of passion that is rarely seen in this world. Though he never fathered any children in his 31 years, he loved his nieces and nephews as if they were his own. He exceedingly filled his role as the "fun uncle" every time the family got together by bringing the goofy out-not only in the kids, but in us all. He radiated joy. He reminded us of the little blessings all around us. He often shared heartfelt quotes and Bible scriptures even when he was hurting inside, always striving to care for the ones around him.

Elvis leaves behind his mother and stepfather, Mary and Brad Redus; his father, Ray Perrigan (Wendy Brenham); grandparents, Patricia and McKinley Lawhorn; his brother, Kenny Bister; and his children, Annika and Joseph, Justin Perrigan and his wife, Hannah Perrigan; and their children, Nathan, Mariah, and Amalia, all living in Ohio; and his significant other, Sarah Welch who he lived with in Doniphan; plus all of his step-family living in Missouri who loved him deeply and many other loved ones and friends. 

A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
