Pearl Wanous, 96, of Red Wing died on Sunday January 19, 2020, at her home at Deer Crest. She was born on September 3, 1923 in Roberts County, South Dakota.

Pearl worked for SuperValu for 38 years retiring as executive secretary. Wayne worked numerous jobs in sales, owned and operated a dry-cleaning business for eight years and then owned his company that created plastic greeting cards. Following their retirement they enjoyed playing golf. That is what brought them to Red Wing in 1992 and they joined the Red Wing Golf Course.

Pearl is survived by one sister, Clarice (Stanley) Susman, and the two are survived by several nieces and nephews.
