PEARSON
John Earnest Pearson, of Sargent, passed away on
Saturday, December 3, 2011. John was also known as “T-John”, “Bama”,
& “Crimson Tide”. Whatever name his many friends knew him by, he
didn’t care. He always greeted us with a big friendly smile. T-John
was born in Alabama on October 3, 1957. His love of Alabama &
Alabama football stayed with him even after many years here in
Texas, moving here in the early 1990’s. T-John was preceded in death
by his father, Houston Leslie Pearson; his mother, Billie Jeanette
Pennesi & a sister, Patricia Ann Pearson. He is survived by 2
daughters, Danielle Gail Pearson & Gabrielle Ann Pearson-Smithey,
both of Missouri. Also surviving him are 5 siblings: Renate Layson,
Houston “Buddy” Pearson II, Jeanette Simmons & Tony Pearson, all of
Alabama & Kem Ainsworth of Huffman, Texas. He will be cremated, with
his ashes spread in both Sargent & Alabama. Along with his native
Alabama & Alabama football, T-John loved to fish & drink his iced
tea. He was happy here in Sargent among his many friends. His
parting has left us deeply saddened. He brightened our lives & we
will miss him.
To t-Johns’ Friends & Family . .
I have known John for many years. I was friends with his mother. I
know that John had a lot of friends, but I would like you to know
just what a special guy he was. Last summer, I suffered from a
pinched nerve in my back. As a result, I had trouble walking,
driving & just dealing with life in general. John was at my house
every day. He drove me to the doctor, he carried out my garbage – he
even washed my dishes for me! He was a good man & a loyal friend. I
am heartbroken at his untimely death & I, like you, will miss him.
