We are sorry for your family’s loss. Mrs. Pearlie was always a sweet lady. I (Gloria), remember as a kid going to visit and she always had a smile. She is at peace with her Lord Jesus now singing praises to him. She will be greatly missed by those who knew and loved her. May God send comfort and peace knowing she is in her eternal home with him. Our prayers and thoughts are with you. 🙏 Joe and Gloria Farrister
