Condolences

The family of Pearl A. Busby has received the following condolences.

Pearl and I worked together at both the Zumbrota Hospital and then several years at Dr. Thompson's office.  She was a great nurse and friend. We shared many good times and laughs during those years, and she will be truly missed.  May you rest in peace my friend.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Pearl's family at this time of sorrow. May you all feel the comforting arms of our dear heavenly father surround you at this time. She was a wonderful friend to my mom and to me. She took it hard when my mom died. I am truly blessed to have been her friend.  It makes me happy to know that she is now in heaven with our Savior, Jesus Christ, and with all her loved ones that went before her. She will truly be missed, by all.

I was blessed to know and work with Pearl for about 20 years, both at Zumbrota Hospital and as my office nurse. Pearl was a great asset to my practice because of  her nursing skill and her ability to relate to and comfort patients. She loved our patients and they loved her. She will be missed in so many ways. RIP.

I am so sorry to hear.  We were best friends since high school.  Rita  Diercks Jurgens

Aunty,


I will never forget all of our talks, and visits. 


And that laugh will always be with me.


Be at peace!


Love  you.
