Our loved one, James "Jimmy" Pearson III, was a son, brother, nephew, uncle and friend. He was born in Florida on June 25, 1981 and passed away on December 08, 2005 at the age of 24. We will remember him forever.

Jimmy went to be with Jesus on December 8, 2005 and immediately told God that our daughter, that was born on October 8, was the perfect child for our family. God sent her to us to help with our grief. She was adopted on December 19, 2007, just four days after the two year anniversary of Jimmy's Memorial Service. She, nor anyone else, could ever replace our "baby boy", but she has definitely along with our boys, brought the life back into our family. Everyone loves her. Thank you, Jimmy, for sending the perfect little angel in our direction.

Jimmy was an outgoing, loveable, athletic young man. He took karate for several years and lettered in both football and wrestling in high school. Jimmy excelled at anything that he tried and never let anything hold him back. If he wanted something, he got it. He's truly my hero!

Jimmy loved animals. I have countless pictures of him with different dogs and he was never without a dog.

Jimmy also adored his grandparents and would spend hours just sitting and talking with them. He would have rather spent his time with his grandparents than any friend his own age.
