On March 12, 1979, a fire destroyed a house at 604 SE 8th Street in Loveland, Colorado, killing 29-year-old Walter Perry and his infant son Kimmo. The blaze occurred in the early hours while the family slept; Walter and the child did not survive, but Walter’s wife Gwendolyn Joyce Perry escaped.

Investigators later determined the fire was deliberately set, and the Larimer County Sheriff’s Office opened a homicide investigation. No arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified; the case went cold and remains unsolved.

Who in the Loveland community remembers the Perrys or has information about that March 1979 arson?
