Doris M. (Guilmette) Perry, 91, longtime resident of Methuen passed away on July 30, 2020 at the Nevins Nursing Home & Rehab Centre in Methuen. Born in Lawrence on July 7, 1929 to the late Joseph and Eva (Gagnon) Guilmette, she graduated from St. Anne’s High School with the Class of 1948. Doris worked for many years as a bookkeeper for Pacific Mills and then finally retiring from the Arlington Trust Company. As a very assertive woman, with a sense of strong independence, she enjoyed the many simple pleasures of life; arts, quilting, craft making, and cooking. Doris was the fun loving beloved matriarch of her family who enjoyed spending quality time at the beach. She touched many lives in many different circles and will fondly be loved, cherished and missed by all. Doris is survived by her two children; her daughter Patricia Woodbridge of Barnstead, New Hampshire and her son Robert Perry of Boise, Idaho. She was the dear grandmother to her five grandsons; Derrick, Mark, Brandon, Eric and Aaron and great-grandmother to Michael, Nicholas, Mark, Emily, Abigail and Alyssa. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her beloved husband John A. Perry in March, 2006, her grandson Adam Perry, and her daughter-in-law Sharon Perry.
