Perry Holmes

Custodian
Perry has been a large part of Second Chance as our dedicated custodian since 2008. Not only does he keep our facility in top shape, but he also played a key role in its construction. A proud father, grandfather, and friend to everyone, Perry brings a passion for cars and motorcycles to his life outside of work. His infectious humor and constant encouragement—often telling staff and volunteers they’re doing “a mighty, mighty fine job”—keep everyone smiling. And Perry, we all know you’re doing a mighty, mighty fine job too!
