There was only one proper way to say a final goodbye to Willie “DJ Casper” Perry Jr.
Dozens of loved ones of the Chicago creator of the “Cha-Cha Slide” did his signature dance after his funeral service Saturday at Holy Temple Cathedral in south suburban Harvey.
Perry, 58, died Aug. 7 at South Suburban Hospital after a long battle with cancer.
He developed the slide — also known as the Casper Slide — for an exercise class taught by his nephew at a Bally Total Fitness in Hyde Park in 1996.
