Gwendolyn Julien wrote a sympathy message

“Mr Pearl was more than a teacher and a coach, he was a part of my life as a teenager and adult. It was clear through action how important the Jarvis and basketball communities were to him and I’m honoured to have been brought into community by him. Another bright star lost to us and forever shining bright through his legacy. With much love and respect and gratitude - you are dearly missed Mr. Pearl. Gwendolyn Julien”

Marv and I had many discussions about basketball and my HCI team took part in many Jarvis tournaments. He also shared his vast basketball knowledge at the clinics he ran. It was a very important member of the TSSAA.”

David A. Ling wrote a sympathy message

“Our hearts are deeply saddened as we mark the end of an era. Marv was our teacher and in his quiet and unassuming way, he taught us all how to learn ... in class, on the court, and on the field. His life was fulfilled through each of his students (athletes or not). He lives on in our hearts as we now carry his torch to teach others and give back to the communities we are each called to. You've inspired generations and were an influencer far ahead of the curve! Thanks, Marv, for the memories.”
