Posted

Pearl C. Hinson (nee Siebert) fell asleep peacefully in her home in Fort Gratiot, Michigan and woke up in the loving arms of her Savior on Wednesday, June 30, 2021.

Born on August 1, 1923 in Halfway (Eastpoint) Michigan, she was the first child of Elsie Priehs Siebert. Pearl was soon after blessed with a sister and lifelong best friend, Jane. Watching the strength and determination of her mother as she worked to provide for her daughters as a single mother, Pearl grew to be a hardworking, independent woman. She was also a lifelong member of the Lutheran Church.

After her marriage to Michael Trombley, she went on to become a mother to two sons, Henry (Elizabeth) And Gerald (Brenda) Trombley. Pearl then began a career at JL Hudson’s in downtown Detroit where she worked for several decades. Pearl was preceded in death by her second husband Albert Hinson. Retirement found Pearl settling down in Clare, MI.

Pearl has left her family and friends with a lifetime of love filled memories.  She was a fierce competitor in card games. Sassy and smart, fashionable and fun, she left a lasting impression on her adoring granddaughters Kimberly Ann (John) Greig and Melissa Ann (Ian) Hale. Pearl leaves behind a living legacy in her great-grandchildren Nycholas (Stephanie) Greig, Benjamyn Greig and Zachary Greig and in her great-great grandchildren Henry and Riley Greig.

A memorial service to be announced at a later date.
