Ms. Perry was born on September 25, 1958, in Monticello, Arkansas, and lived in Texarkana for most of her life. She was formerly employed with Christus St. Michael Health System and a member of Hickory Street Baptist Church. Paula enjoyed a good game of Bingo and listening to Country and Gospel music. She never met a stranger and was the life of the party. Paula also received her bachelor’s degree in psychology from Texas A&M University in Texarkana. The most important part of her life was spending time with her family. She was preceded in death by her parents, Odis and Dorothy Ogles, and one daughter, Amanda Hoover.
