Norm, and family,
Wanted to give you our sympathy. Pearl was a nice lady and will be dearly missed.
Pearl and I co-taught Bible School one year. I got to know Pearl more during this time. She sure had a love for children. I remember we had one little guy that year that gave us a run for our money. At the end of the day we both looked at each other and said we made it threw another day.
I also remember seeing you and Pearl at the grocery store and you both were so happy with having a grandson. Seeing the pictures of Pearl at the church with her tiny grandsons in her arms made me smile.
May God be with you these coming days. I will keep you in my prayers too. Your friends from A.E.F.Church, Dave & June Koopmans

To Norman, Norma, Ruby, Patty and family--
I am so very sorry to learn of Pearl's passing. Norma,
I remember talking with your mom (at your house,
probably after marching band rehearsal or during band
camp!), and she was always kind. Truly a lovely person.
I hope to be able to attend the service this morning. Wanted
you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
