Pearlean Shelton

With much love spread and many memories shared, our beloved Pearlean accept­ed her angel's invitation into the kingdom on Monday, June 22, 2020 at Capital Health Regional Center at Fuld in Trenton, New Jersey. As a result, our hearts are less bright but we know the heavens are filled with extra doses of love, joy, peace and laughter.
