Pearl Emma McCallum – 94, Truro. With heavy hearts,
we announce the sudden and peaceful passing of our mother and
grandmother, Pearl McCallum, at The Mira Long-Term Care Centre, Truro,
on Sunday, May 5, 2024. Born in Valley, Colchester County, she was the
daughter of the late Mae and Theodore Cooley.
Pearl is survived by her son, Martin (Jennifer); daughters,
Angela (Conrad), Lynn (Doug) and Sharon; grandchildren, Sonya, Sarah,
Daniel, Thomas, Oliver, Jenna, Evan, Addison; great grandchildren,
Hunter and Remi; loving sister, Marion Cooley; several nieces and
nephews.
Along with her parents, Pearl was predeceased by her husband,
Elroy; brothers, Don and Elliot; sisters, Frances, Florence, and
Shirley Joan.
Pearl was a hard worker since a young age. Taking care of
people came naturally to her. She had many roles as care giver, retail
worker, and had fond memories of working at the fruit stand she and
Elroy had in early years on Pictou Road. She cherished her family and
all could count on a good meal, lots of laughs and a listening ear
with Pearl. She touched many hearts with her kindness, generosity,
sense of humour and positivity.
We send heartfelt gratitude to the wonderful, caring staff at
The Mira who helped Pearl’s last couple of years be filled with
comfort, happiness and love.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Mattatall –
Varner Funeral Home, 55 Young Street, Truro. At Pearl’s request, no
service or visitation will be held. A private family graveside service
will take place at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please donate to
a charity of your choice or simply cherish those around you with
kindness and compassion as our dear mother always did. Tributes, words
of comfort and memories may be shared at:
