  1. I have known Pearl for many years, I met her when her husband was in the nursing home. She was a very sweet lady, and I remember seeing
    her outside a lot or at the Dollar Store and would stop to say a few words. Thinking of all the family and sending prayers to you as well.

  2. Your Mother was one of the sweetest and kindest ladies I have ever known and I think you were blessed to be known as her son. I am thinking of you and Lance and Katie and sending my love and heart felt thoughts to you and her grandchildren. God speed to Pearl, one of a few angels on this earth. Judy

    Pearl was a kind non judging lady. She cared for our children, played with them loved to take them walks to the park to enjoy nature. I know she will be an angel looking over them.

  4. +Pearl was a special lady. My Mother Bea Jones was a very dear friend . All her friends and sister Earl would take turns going to each others houses once a month and play bingo they all had such a good time. they all were beautiful friend and always laughing. so sorry for your loss but heaven gained another angel.

  5. Kenny and family,
    I am so sorry to ,hear of your mother*s passing. I worked with Josie years ago at TCMH, please know my prayers will be with your family during this difficult time.

    Sincerely,
    Larry & Penni (Chadwell) Barnes & family

  6. I could sit here and write volumes about my Mom. Anyone that new her could tell you what a wonderful, kind and thoughtful lady she was. She never met a stranger.
    Dementia took a large part of Mom, but it couldn’t take her beautiful smile. Mom won that one. She loved the simpler things in life. She loved the season changes and all that nature gave her to see.

    My heart is hurting and it will to the day I die. I will miss her dearly.

    I LOVE YOU, MOM

    Thank You all for your loving and kind words.
