July 15, 1928 — February 6, 2017
Pearl F. Woods of Potosi, Missouri was born July 15, 1928 at Scrap Branch, Missouri a daughter to the late Fitz Halbert and the late Mable (Hutchings) Halbert. On December 2, 1955 Pearl was united in marriage to Herman Woods and they shared sixty-one years together.
Pearl went home to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Monday, February 6, 2017 at the Potosi Manor Nursing Home having reached the age of eighty-eight years, six months and twenty-two days.
Pearl will be missed by all those who loved and knew her including her beloved husband, Herman Woods of Potosi; son Bruce Woods and wife Kathy of Potosi; sister Fredia Dudley and husband Willard of Independence, Missouri; two grandchildren: John Woods and Tiffany Woods both of Potosi; sister-in-law Irma Lee Tedder of Desloge; also surviving are other relatives and friends.
In addition to her parents, Pearl was preceded in death by two brothers: Woodrow Halbert and wife Rino; Noel Halbert and wife Jean; sister Polly Jinkerson and husband Kenny; brothers-in-law: Truman Woods and wife Joy; Frank McKinley and Bob Tedder.
Pearl loved Jesus! She loved to serve at vacation bible school and through the ladies club at church. She was a faithful member of White Oak Grove Baptist Church for many years having been baptized in 1957. While working as a school cook at Shirley School and later at Potosi High School she loved to interact with the kids. After retirement she enjoyed going for walks to feed the fish with her faithful dog 3 Legs, who she rescued from the highway, and later Rambo. She loved to go fishing with her grandkids and ride her gator. Even hanging up her gator because her husband told her she wouldn't get stuck, but Bruce and John saved the day. The easiest way to describe Pearl was a God fearing, loving, caring and strong woman who took each day "One day at a Time."
