Pearl was predeceased by her parents, Charlie and Cassie, and husband, Robert. She is survived by her daughter Jan and her husband Ray, her son Todd and his wife Linda. She was a proud grandmother to Logan and his wife KD, Drew, and Hannah, and a proud great-grandmother to Logan and KD’s son, Wells.
