Perry D Fleming

Perry Dean Fleming, age 53 of Mascoutah, IL, born and raised in Alexandria, LA, died Wednesday, March 10, 2021.

Perry was a retired Captain from the U. S. Air Force and currently worked as a Senior Information Assurance Analyst for Huntington Ingalls Industries.  He proudly served his country for 21 years, including his time served in the Gulf War and was a member of Holy Childhood Catholic Church in Mascoutah.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Dixie Renee, nee Summerlin, Fleming, and his mother, Shirley Fleming.

Surviving are his two daughters, Alison (Benjamin) Helfin, Katelyn (Christopher) Grandstaff; his father, Perry (Billye) Fleming; brother, Jeffrey (Erica) Fleming; sisters, Kristal (Blake) Ducote, Hope (Allen) Ringler; his fiancé, Kara Sinclair; granddaughter, Peyton Helfin; as well as many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

Perry was an amazing friend to anyone he met. He never knew a stranger (unless it was an Alabama fan) and was quick to make everyone feel included. He was always the life of the party and could light up any room with his quick wit and great sense of humor. He will be deeply missed by so many of his friends and family.
