The Legacy of Doris and Scott Perry Jr. is a powerful, heartfelt tribute to two extraordinary lives woven together by love, faith, resilience, and service. From humble beginnings in 1930s Chicago and rural Louisiana, Doris and Scott Perry Jr. rose to become pillars of their community--founding a successful family-owned sanitation business, raising five children with integrity and purpose, and breaking racial and political barriers in local government. Told through rich storytelling and personal insight, this biographical narrative captures the essence of a couple who turned adversity into opportunity, grief into strength, and a simple dream into a lasting legacy. When Scott Perry Jr. passed away, Doris stepped into the very public service role he once held, making history as the first African American woman elected to serve as Police Jury for District I.
