Pearl Trevino Coronado, 89, was born July 20, 1937, in Wharton, Texas, and passed away October 28, 2026. A beloved and cherished presence in the lives of many, Pearl will be remembered for her faithful heart, gentle strength, and the quiet wisdom she shared so freely with those around her.
Born to her parents, Ygnacio and Hilaria Sauseda, Pearl’s life was shaped early by values of honesty, loyalty, and devotion—qualities that remained steady throughout her years. She graduated from Jefferson Davis High School in Houston, Texas, and carried forward a thoughtful, resilient spirit that guided her through every season of life.
Pearl dedicated more than 30 years of service to Southwestern Bell Telephone Co. / AT&T, where her reliability and kind-hearted nature were evident in both her work and her relationships. Over the years, she formed lifelong friendships with her co-workers—connections built on mutual respect, generosity, and genuine care.
Pearl was married to her loving husband, John Augustine Coronado, for fifty seven years. Their marriage reflected deep devotion and enduring partnership. Pearl was preceded in death by her husband on November 8, 2018, and her love for him remained a constant part of her story.
Family was at the center of Pearl’s life. She found joy in time spent together, especially in the simple, meaningful ways she showed love—cooking and baking for those she cared for, sewing with patient attention, and offering comfort through steady compassion. Pearl and her husband also loved to dance; they would glide across the dance floor, embracing their heritage and the Mexican music they treasured.
A devoted and selfless woman of faith, Pearl was an active member of St. Thomas More Catholic Church. She and her husband volunteered at the church, serving with humility and generosity—always willing to give of themselves for the good of others.
