So sorry for your loss may you find peace and comfort in the words spoken at 2 Corinthians 1:3 & 4" Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials so that we may be able to comfort others in any sort of trial with the comfort that we get from God.

I am very saddened by the loss of Pearl. I used to work with her at Allen's Grocery many years ago. She was so sweet and loving and a real light to be around, she always made me laugh. I moved to Mountain Home and lost contact with her, but I will always remember the times we had working together. I'm sorry for your loss.

I’m shocked and heartbroken to hear of Pearl’s passing. She was such a kind-hearted and generous lady who was so loving to my family and me. She used to come to our family get-together every year and would bring whatever was needed for Thanksgiving. She was there for my family as we lost my Granny, uncles and aunt, as well as my mom. She would go and put flowers on my mom’s grave and do this for all of my family at the cemetery in Yellville. I went with her a few times to freshen the flowers. She was like a family member and I will miss her terribly. God bless those she left behind.

I am so very sad to see this, I have been trying to call her for over a week, she never answered but I thought maybe she was on a trip. She was a very generous, loving person and a very good friend. I will miss her so much, she has been a friend to my family ever since she moved here. Prayers for the family. Please let me know if I can help.
