She had been residing at the New Underwood Good Samaritan Center since October 2011. Pearl was born December 9, 1909 to Rose Caroline Ivory and Thomas Kennada Ivory in Yankton County, South Dakota. In January of 1910 Thomas, Rose and four children rode the train from Yankton to New Underwood where Thomas had previously claimed some land north of the Belle Fourche River near what is known as Clough, SD. They loaded a team and wagon and crossed the Belle Fourche River in January 1910 during a spring thaw, with four children and their worldly belongings. Marie, John, Melvin and Pearl were about to experience the wide open space of western South Dakota. Later, five more children would be born to the Ivory family – Roy, Willard, Sidney, Florence and Winnie. Florence died as a baby in 1906. Pearl went to grade school at several locations and received her 8th grade diploma from the Shoun School. Shortly thereafter, she moved to Mt. Pleasant, Iowa to live with her sister Marie. There she waited tables and cooked in restaurants during the Depression. During the war years, she worked in a bomb factory loading bombs with explosives to help the war effort. After the war, she decided to attend Beauty College and attain her Cosmetology Degree. She began a long and successful career as a beautician in Iowa. She later met and married Richard Crawford, a barber, on February 27, 1949, and they established a successful barber and beauty shop in Ames, Iowa. They later moved to Colorado and then to Arizona cutting and styling hair all the way. Richard passed away September 15, 1991 and Pearl moved back to Rapid City in 1996 to be closer to family and friends. Aunt Pearl was a very classy lady with hair always perfectly styled in a way only she could perfect. She always liked to dress up and go somewhere to eat, drink and be happy; especially Deadwood, where she liked to pull the handles. Pearl was a very hard worker, fixing friend's and family's hair. She also loved to cook and entertain with great detail. It was nothing for her to cook a five course meal and she would do it with flair. She loved to write letters and did so into her later years. Her handwriting had a special personal touch to it with sketching, pictures, and color, especially during the holidays. Pearl also enjoyed painting pictures well into her 90's. Pearl and her sister Winnie Bruns enjoyed some time traveling together. One special trip was when they went to Brussels, Belgium and Ireland. She is survived by her stepdaughter Anne (Don) Woodard; several nieces; and nephews. She is preceded in death by her parents, Rosie and Thomas Ivory; nine brothers and sisters; and her husband Richard Crawford. In lieu of flowers, a memorial has been established at the New Underwood Good Samaritan Center. Funeral services will be held at 10 am Monday, April 14, 2014 at Kirk Funeral Home with Fr. Bill Zandri officiating. Interment will follow at the New Underwood Cemetery.
