Madisonville Democrat, (Monroe Co. TN) Wednesday, March 21, 1934, Page 1:

“In Memory of H.L. Pearson---On Saturday morning, March 3, at 2:20 o’clock, the death angel visited the home of H.L. Pearson, our dear husband and father, and claimed him for its victim.

He departed this life on March 3, 1934, being at the time of his death 76 years, 5 months and 7 days old.

He was married April 11, 1883 to Dora Wilson, and to this union nine children were born, all of whom survive. He leaves to mourn his death, his wife, Dora Pearson; six daughters, Mrs. Minnie Harrison, Mrs. Gladys Patterson, Mrs. Pearl Harrison and Leota Pearson all of Tellico Plains; Mrs. Carrie Miller and Mrs. Mayme Sylvester of Athens; three sons, Art and Earnest Pearson of Tellico Plains, and Wesley Pearson of Knoxville; also two brothers, Tom and Jim Pearson of Tellico Plains; two sisters Mrs. Mary Robinson of Madisonville and Mrs. Alice Duncan of Texas, and a number of grandchildren and other relatives and a host of friends.

He had been in failing health for four years, but was only confined to his bed but a short time before his death. All was done that loving hands and medical aid could do but the time had come when he had to stand aside, for the Lord had said come and we could do no more. Father, it was hard to see you go, but we feel our loss is Heaven’s gain.

He professed faith in Christ in the year 1921 and joined the Presbyterian Church at Sink, of which he remained a member until death.

Funeral services were conducted by Rev. W.D. Wolfe from the Valley Church at 12 o’clock Sunday, March 4. Burial was in the cemetery nearby. The pallbearers were his grandsons and nephews, Carl Miller, Vernon Harrison, Birch Harrison, Vineyard and Maynard Wilson and Luther Hunt.

Precious Daddy how we miss you,
Since your precious form lies still,
The vacant place left in our home
Can never more be filled.

Written by one of loved him.
