She was such a great and wonderful, who will be missed.
I’m not sure you ever stopped being one of her students, doesn’t matter how many years after she had you in her classroom. I moved out of the area after college, but everytime I came back to the area, if Capana’s was open, I would stop by. And everytime she would remember me and call me be name. She always showed a sincere level of carrying for how you were and how your life was going that is rare.

To the Hierholzer family, please accept my deepest sympathies in the loss of this extraordinary woman. She had all 4 of my kids in her classroom in the Floyd Elementary School. They all loved her. May she rest in peace.

Bob,Mary,John,&Joe and family, It's over 65 years since "Miss Capanna" put me on her lap and dried my tears on my first day of Kindergarten, at Oriskany Central School. When Pearl & Bob were married, I was thrilled to be a Junior Bride's Maid, and Mrs.H. was my sponsor when I made my Confirmation. Every birthday I received a special gift, and in the summers I loved going to "help" at the Capanna's Fruit Stand. Best strawberries and sweet corn of my entire life!!
I remember Joseph&Rita, always working, cooking delicious Italian meals in the "summer kitchen" behind the stand.
Just about a week ago I suddenly happened to thinking about Pearl. I tried to determine how old she might be now, and I wondered how she was as I remembered how completely special and important she always made me feel, how kind and caring she was to everyone, how now, over 70, her non-judgemental, uplifting, sweetness has no rivals.
Kindergarten was a child's first educational experience then, before daycare, or preschool....The children fortunate enough to have had "Miss Capanna/Mrs.H " as their first teacher likely have the same memories that I do, that I will cherish all of my life.
My deepest heartfelt loving sympathy to all who are , as I am, so very thankful for the gift of this most wonderful person in their lives . May your memories and those of all who loved her bring you solace and comfort. Marjorie L.Roblin

Bob, Mary, John, Sorry for the loss of your mom. She was a wonderful and generous person. She was my dad's right hand for all of those years they were together at General William Floyd Elementary school. Our homes are still full of her painted holiday ceramics she gave us over the years! Best regards, Joseph, Christine, and Mark Guarini

My sincere condolences to Bob, Mary and John. As you know your mom was so much to me. She was a teacher, mentor, colleague and mostly a friend. I have so many happy and funny memories of the time I spent learning, working and talking with her. Being in her presence you just simply felt loved. I am so sorry for your loss and thank you for so generously sharing her with me.

I have known Pearl for many years. She was such a great person, she always had a smile on her face. I have been going to their fruit stand for over 40 years. I have always enjoyed talking with her and her husband. She will be greatly missed. My prayers and condolences go out to her family at this difficult time.
