Mrs. Ouida Pearl Harrell (Wood, Sisson, Ernst) passed away August 21, 2021. She was born November 4, 1940, to Pearlie Lee Harrell and Buck Thomas Harrell at home in Holmes County, FL.
She was a 1959 graduate of Ponce De Leon High School, where she had many friends whom she loved. She was a beautiful woman with a beautiful heart and jovial in her words and actions. No matter the circumstances life threw her way, she always kept going, never giving up. Her love of food stands out the most- never afraid to try something new. She loved Korean, Chinese, Japanese, and fried chicken. She loved watching Jeopardy and she loved being outside. We miss her so very much.
She was preceded in death by her parents, her brother, Cecil Durwood Harrell, and an infant brother, William Thomas Harrell.
