I worked with Pearl for quite a while at one of the insurance companies where we were employed. She was a beautiful, intelligent, hard working woman who would gladly give her time and knowledge to help in any way she could. She was so much fun and kind. I will miss seeing her smiling face. Prayers are being sent for her children, grandchildren, and the family and friends. Brenda Sizemore.

Pearl was a big sister to me. We met at CVCC taking classes together and went on to graduate from Troy together. Pearl, myself and our classmate Mavis would get together as often as possible to have lunch, go to the movies and just catch up. She will be greatly missed We've lost a mother, grandmother, sister and friend here in earth however we have gained an angel in heaven. To the family I love you all. Sending hugs and prayers your way. Love Cassandra
