Obituary For Ms. Evelyn S. Pearl

Mrs. Evelyn Sheila Carter Pearl, On December 23, 1947 in Boston Massachusetts, a beautiful daughter was born to Zamora Perry Palmer and Benjamin Carter. She was affectionately named Evelyn; she had three brothers, and one sister. Her family later moved to Baltimore, Maryland, where she attended Sollers Point High School. After graduation, she matriculated at the Community College of Baltimore with a focus in Business Administration. She married her sweetheart, the late Mr. Robert Pearl Sr., and from that union were born four children. Later in life, she gave birth to her youngest son Kristopher Morgan. Evelyn Pearl was the Den Mother to all of childrens friends; her house was warmly known as the gathering place for all to feel welcomed, and at home.

Evelyn Sheila Pearl joined the ranks of the United States Navy on June 2, 1979, where she proudly served as a Yeoman Petty Officer First Class for 16 years. During her tenure, Evelyn received several honors, medals, and commendations for her distinguished service. Due to medical reasons, she was Honorably discharged.

Evelyns pass time loves were sewing, crafting, and cooking. Lasagna was her specialty, but her homemade rolls were a coveted delight during the holiday season. Her favorite sport to watch was undoubtedly tennis, and her two favorites --Venus and Serena Williams. Her favorite song was befittingly Diamonds and Pearls by Prince. Evelyn enjoyed reading romance novels, and she was an avid history buff; she had seen most, if not all, war movies ever produced several times over. The Kindle Fire tablet must have been created especially for Evelyn Pearl; she absolutely loved her Kindle Fire; they were practically inseparable--even up to her last hours on Earth.

Mrs. Evelyn Pearl will be dearly missed and forever remembered. She leaves to cherish her memory: beloved children: Robert Pearl, Jr., Karl Pearl (Shelett), Rose Pearl, Michael L. Pearl, Kristopher Morgan; Five grandchildren: Autumn Pearl, Alex Pearl, Vanessa Pearl, Ian Pearl, Noah Pearl; brothers: Mr. Andre Carter, Mr. Anthony Davis; preceded in death by Mr. Elza Lee Carter; sister: Ms. Wilhelmina Brown; nieces: Nichole Brown, Mecca Brown; and a host of relatives and friends.

You have my deepest condolences. May the love of family, friends, and Almighty God bring you comfort and support during your time of grief and afterward. (Ps. 83:18; Isaiah 41:10) May the hope of a resurrection right here on a restored earth bring you peace. (Acts 24:15; Psalm 37:11, 29)

When death robs us of someone we love very much, it causes such sadness and grief. Our loving heavenly father feels the deep emotional pain we have. That is why his word the Bible comforts us with scriptures found at Psalm 34:18 which says; Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit. Also Isaiah 66:13a says: As a mother comforts her son, so I (God) will keep comforting you. May these scriptures help you during this time of sorrow.

I am very sorry for your loss. I would like to share a scripture that I hope brings you comfort during this difficult time. "The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." -John 5:28. This scripture shows that God has promised to restore the dead to life by the means of the resurrection. You have the hope of being reunited with loved ones right here on earth but under very different conditions! For additional encouraging information please visit www.jw.org
