Pearl Louise Lindsay of Calgary passed away on Saturday, April 30, 2005 at the age of 84 years. Pearl was born on January 20, 1921 in St. Paul, Minnesota. She moved to Canada and was raised in Strome, AB, where she met and married her husband of sixty-one years. She volunteered with the Red Cross Blood Donor Clinic and was a long-time member at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church.
