Born in Belfast, Ireland, on November 10, 1941, to the late Jack and Annie Brown. She was the last surviving child of 11. Pearl’s journey through life was marked by her unwavering kindness, creativity, and the profound love she held for her family and friends.
In 1959, at the tender age of 17, Pearl wed her lifelong love, Robert Cahoon, in a ceremony that would mark the beginning of a beautiful partnership lasting 65 years. Together, they embarked on a life full of adventure and growth, welcoming their children: Stephen (Carolyn), Robert, Ruth, and Joanne.

Pearl lived in Belfast, Ireland until 1969. They initially settled in Galt, Ontario, before moving to Burnaby, British Columbia. Eventually, Pearl’s heart led her back to Galt, where she remained until her final days.
