Our Mom was a quiet and gentle soul, generous and kind, creative and hard-working. Our home always had animals, furry and feathered, and always more than one! She was an avid gardener, exceptional seamstress and knitter. She inspired us in music, to sing and learn to play the organ and piano. She encouraged activity and taught us to swim and skate. Through her words and actions she gave us a rich legacy of love, wisdom, faith and integrity. We continue to be truly blessed by the love we have been given by our mom and dad and we will cherish our many precious memories always.

Our family extends heartfelt and sincere gratitude to Dr. Ean Parsons for his continued care and especially for his house calls, and to Dr. Buckle, Dr. Stone and the Nursing staff at the Health Sciences Emergency. Our deepest thanks to each of you for your kindness and compassion.
Our deepest appreciation to our Aunt, Lois Pitcher for her personal care work and support to mom the past two years. Your presence added to mom’s contentment and peace of living in comfort at Maver and Paul’s home.

  5. To Maver and Family,
    My condolences to all of you on the passing of a wonderful lady. I have known Pearl over 36 years . What stands out was that she was a caring ‘carer’ . She cared about her cooking she did at work making sure everyone was fed. The care she took of her parents as they aged ( not to mention the Christmas Stockings Mrs Simmons made and are still used by my kids) The care she took of Harold with his medical issues and the determination she faced her medical problems over the years. To me she was stoic and approached each problem as it came . Although reluctant to leave her treasured home she eventually understood the need to move and battled through a number of medical set backs in the last 10 years of life. She has set a fine example and multiple memories for all of you. The incredible care she received from you is a testament to the love you have for her.Take care. I will continue to regularly think of Pearl and what a fine woman she was.
