Odile D. Perkins

Odile Perkins, 90, of New Hampshire, passed away peacefully on May 10, 2025. Born on February 21, 1935, Odile grew up in Epping and graduated with the Class of 1953 from St. Joseph’s School for Girls.

Odile was predeceased by her beloved husband, Leslie Roy Perkins, and her cherished daughter, Cindy Lynn Graveline.

She leaves behind a loving legacy through her grandchildren: Jason, Crystal, and Brian Graveline; her great-grandchildren: Morgan, Hazy Shea, and Bryson Graveline; and her son-in-law Gary Graveline (Cindy Lynn Graveline).

Odile was known for her strong work ethic and resilience. She began her career at Pandora Sweater Factory in the Manchester mills and later worked at Lockheed Sanders. She enjoyed life to the fullest, especially her time outdoors—spending over 30 years camping at Wellington Campground in Lee, NH, where she made countless memories.

A true spitfire, Odile was never afraid to speak her mind and had an unmatched sense of humor that could light up a room. She was selfless to her core, often advocating for others—especially fellow nursing home residents who could not speak up for themselves.

Odile will be remembered not only for her bold spirit and endless compassion but also for the laughter and love she brought into every life she touched. She will be deeply missed and forever cherished by those who knew and loved her.
