My Name Is Pearl

Janis Burnie Desjardins

Who is the woman wearing the fedora hat?

The fedora is a timeless symbol of confidence and sophistication. Her name is Pearl, my grandmother, who lived to be 101 years old. This gripping memoir chronicles her life and miraculous passing, making it truly unique. Everyone has a story; everyone is unique. The setting may differ, but I hope you will find a part of your own story within these pages and feel a sense of hope. We all share one certainty: we will all pass on. Pearl seemed to exist between both the physical and spiritual realms. Could there be a reckoning for some? Have you ever wondered what happens just before we leave this world? Delve into the story to discover more about the experiences shared by witnesses at Pearl's passing.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." -John 3:16 (NIV)
