Edna Jean Dorgan Perot passed away on Thursday, September 8, 2022 in Jefferson, Texas, at the age of 90. She was born February 5, 1932 in Marion County to Edward and Ora Lee Dorgan. Edna married Alphonse Love Perot, Jr., in Newton, Texas on January 12, 1946 and they were married for seventy years until Al’s passing in 2016. She traveled to many different places during Al’s 22 years in the United State Navy and settled back in Jefferson after his retirement. The two of them raised two children, Robbie and Victor, and were active in the community. They especially enjoyed playing golf until the decline of their health. Edna loved her family tremendously and they loved her that way, too.
Edna was preceded in death by her parents and one sister, Helen Hampton.
