As longtime supporters know, the Perry Wellness Center family includes many actual Perry family members. The Perrys have long had a strong commitment to mental health and also a joy in working with each other, which extends across the extended Perry family; e.g., Perry Brothers Oil.

So, we’re formally welcoming Susan Perry Childs to Perry Wellness Center, where she does marketing for Rudy’s Happy Patch Market. Susan is the sister of PWC founder and CEO Stuart Perry. 

Susan explains, “I have been in marketing for many years. After Stuart invited me to join Perry Wellness Center and Rudy’s Happy Patch Market, I sold my company and have joined him. I hope I can bring new concepts to his already winning market ideas.”

With the increase in business at the market, Susan has been a welcome addition to staff. She made her “debut” with a day at the Mobile Market in downtown Buena Vista.

“It was fun to be with Stuart, across from our early GasNGo station and see people that I knew in Buena Vista.” The community is also her hometown, and the site she references was one of the early family operations of the enterprise that grew into the sprawling Perry Brothers Oil Company.
