  • Pearl and Art "adopted" us when we lived in Winnipeg for 2 years as young marrieds. We maintained our very special, loving friendship for over 40 years through visits and phone calls. We always felt surrounded by Pearl's warmth and caring. I will miss our weekly phone calls and looking for magnets to send to Pearl when we travel. - Posted by: Marcia and Robert Kerchner (Friend) on: Nov 09, 2016

  • My deepest sympathy to the Lerner family! I loved your Mum and she was so good to me! Sometimes she was determined to have her own way, and usually got what she wanted, like keep me doing her hair every week, even though I was retired! She taught me lots, and especially her red pepper relish was a treasure! Your Mum loved each one of you and grieved when you were so far away! Donna - Posted by: Donna Harper (Pearls hairdresser!
