To our father he worked tirelessly with his hands and heart to build a life and provide for his family. His greatest pride was the ensuring that his family was always provided for. A man of determination and immense strength, he defined what it meant to be provider. He sacrificed selfishly to give us a foundation of security. His work ethic was unmatched and his devotion to his family never wavered. He was our rock, working every day to provide security. He lived a life defined by honor, hard work and devotion to his family and friends. He was a man of wisdom and a generous heart. He was always willing to help anyone and sacrifice himself to help others. He was our anchor, our teacher and our greatest supporter. You didn't just tell us how to live. You lived and let us watch you do it. Your guiding hand will rest on our shoulders even though you're no longer here. Thank you for every sacrifice you made and for always being the rock our family could lean on. To the man who taught us the value of hard work, with endless love and appreciation for everything you built, sacrificed and provided for us. Rest in peace Dad. God provided you with so much wisdom and the ability to do just about anything. Today God received his greatest builder. We love and will miss you tremendously.

Oliver Funeral Home of Eupora is honored to be entrusted with all arrangements for the Pearson family.
