Honaker, VA – Allen Junior 'Bub' Perkins, 63, passed away
Thursday, December 18, 2008, in an Abingdon, VA, hospital
following a short illness. Born January 20, 1945, in
Grundy, VA, he was a son of the late Paul Allen and Trula
Hess Perkins.

A lifelong resident of the Russell Co VA area, he was of
the Freewill Baptist faith and a disabled coal miner. He
was a loving husband, daddy and poppaw and will be greatly
missed.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by
two infant daughters; one grandson, Brandon Perkins; three
brothers, Therman Perkins, Sherman Perkins, and one infant
brother; one nephew, Terry Perkins; grandparents, Jim and
Alta Keen Perkins, and Guss and Lula Dye Hess; and his
loving mother-in-law, the Rev. Jettie Dye.

Survivors include his wife of 46 years, Vangeline Dye
Perkins of the home; two sons, Michael 'Mike' Perkins and
fiancée Alice Justice of Pounding Mill, VA, and Manuel
Allen Perkins and wife Peggy Dye Perkins of Lebanon, VA;
one daughter, Barbara Perkins Roman and husband Mike of
Honaker, VA; two grandsons, Joey Perkins and wife Christy
of Honaker, VA, and Chandler Allen Perkins of Lebanon, VA;
four granddaughters, Nicole Roman, Kiana Roman, Denelle
Perkins and Sydney Harris, all of Honaker, VA; two special
foster grandchildren, Chase and Stephanie Breedlove of
Castlewood, VA; step-grandchildren, Cody and Casey Justice;
four sisters, Francis Poff of NC, Judy Hess and husband
Darrell of Honaker, VA, the Rev. Katie Miller of Swords
Creek, and Jennie Howell and husband Kenneth of Red Ash;
one brother, Darrell Perkins and wife Mary of Honaker, VA;
many nieces and nephews who thought of him as more than an
uncle – he was 'papaw'; special friend, Cecil Miller of
Honaker; several aunts and uncles; and many friends also
survive.

Funeral services will be conducted at 2 p.m. Monday,
December 22, 2008, in the Honaker Funeral Home Chapel,

Honaker officiating.

Interment will follow in the Perkins-Dye Cemetery at
