Mrs. Pearse worked in accounting as a bookkeeper for many years. Throughout her career she worked for Schafer Distributing, Grahl Industries and the last 15 years, until her retirement, at Arnold Auto Parts.
Mary was very devout in her faith, born and raised in the Catholic religion. She had attended the Coldwater Free Methodist Church and Lockwood Community Churches where she was very involved in many of the church activities, but her heart led her back to Catholicism. Mary Loved knitting and crocheting and enjoyed spending time on the lake. Her family was most important to her, especially her grandchildren.
