To all my cousins, Aunt Pearl will be greatly missed. I am so glad I got to talk to her a few weeks ago, she told me she was ready. God called home one of his own and I am sure Uncle Bill was waiting for her. I pray for all your hearts to be comforted upon her leaving. She still called me Patty Ann each time we visited. I loved her so! I was blessed with great Aunts and will surely miss her. Love, Patti & Shaun & Family
