She enjoyed a long career, which included tenures at Blaine Lake CIBC and Saskatoon City Hospital. Most of all, she was a devoted wife, mother, and Baba, who was treasured for her hospitality, compassion, humour, and outgoing spirit. Pearl unconditionally loved her family, sharing with them the fruits of her garden and kitchen, while also encouraging them in their sports, music, and academic endeavours. Furthermore, she selflessly supported the family farm and the Blaine Lake Doukhobor Prayer Home. Over her last years, she never complained about her declining health, but instead fought valiantly until the end. She will be greatly missed by her family, friends, and community. Pearl’s family wishes to extend their gratitude to the incredible staff of the Hafford Special Care Centre and the Battlefords Union Hospital.
