She was a long time employee of the Sears Roebuck Co., where she ultimately became a Division Manager. She was a life-long member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS), serving in many capacities. She prided herself most as the ward music chairman of the Lincoln Second Ward. Her many other callings included: Young Women's President, Gospel Doctrine teacher, Compassionate Service Leader, Choir Director, Ward Historian, and service in the Idaho Falls Temple. Pearl was an avid reader and enjoyed gardening, knitting, and was an expert seamstress. She loved music and had a beautiful alto voice. She is survived by three sons: Dennis C.
