Notes |
- Pearl Kline, 91, 2800 11th St. SE, Minot, formerly of the Turtle Lake and Mercer areas, died Thursday, January 24, 2008 in a Minot Hospital.
Pearl was born on December 8, 1916, in Turtle Lake, ND, to Gena (Peterson) and Chris Lockrem. She graduated from Turtle Lake High School and Minot State Teacher's College. Pearl began her long teaching career in one room schools in the Turtle Lake, Mercer area, where she acted as teacher, cook, and janitor. Pearl spent a short stint with the Beulah Public school system where she had a classroom of over forty grade schoolers. Pearl's absence "made the heart grow fonder" as Archie wooed his sweetheart home and walked Pearl down the aisle at Strawberry Lake on July 28, 1940. They set up housekeeping at Mercer where they reared Murray and Arlette and where Pearl taught 7th and 8th grade. In the summer of 1962, Pearl and Archie moved their family to Minot. Once settled in Minot, Pearl continued her teaching career at Jefferson Elementary, Jim Hill Junior High and Minot Bishop Ryan where she taught present Governor John Hoeven. Pearl's life centered around her teaching career and her family. She loved holiday gatherings, playing cards, gardening, fishing, and caring for those around her.??In her later years, Pearl was blessed by the loving care of special angels here on earth: Mary Wright and Linda Gieser, Minot: Joni Anderson of Granville; Karen and Tom Krebsbach, Carolyn Barden, and Dolores Boozenny, Max; Jane and Jim Jundt, Minot; and Janene and Michael Kittleson, Benedict. Pearl's loving spirit touched the lives of many. Surely the good Lord has prepared a special place for His Pearl.??Those Most Honored to Share In Her Life: son, Murray Kline, Alexander, ND; daughter, Arlette D. (John) Wood, Minot; four grandchildren, Kenton Wood (Lynette), Eric Wood (Kelli), Stewart Kline (Alicia), and Stephanie Webb (Aaron); seven great-grandchildren, Christiana Wood, Levi Wood, Cody Wood, Mikka Webb, Zachary Webb, Isaac Kline, and Matthew Kline. Sisters-in-law, Ella Mae Lockrem, Eunice Nelson along with numerous nieces and nephews.??Pearl was preceded in death by her husband, Archie; parents; sister, Gertrude Love; and brothers, Chester Lockrem and Garner Webster.
