Our beloved and sadly missed, son Alexander S. Pearse (Alex) was called upon by our Father in Heaven on the morning of 3.15.15. It has become increasingly clear that Alex was sent to us here with divine purpose. God had strategically used Alexander's affliction to magnify the innate resilience and strength that this young man would display to all who would know him. Alex would confidently trivialize his physical challenges which could never be detected due to the radiance of his smile and the levity of his wit. Alex has managed to touch the hearts of both young and old by managing to deliver endless happiness and joy using his gift of transforming an alleged 'Disability' into an immeasurable and obvious 'Ability' Alexander would be sent from the heavens to hand deliver his father to Christ and overwhelmingly cause those who he would meet to reevaluate their desire to ever complain. He lacked the human emotion of self pity and would unintentionally reveal this as his journey was nearing and end. Alexander Pearse was not only an avid sports car and football enthusiast he was also true supporter of the many Sports he would eventually be unable to play. Alex is notably acknowledged by TSgt Sean Romero crew chief with the 177th Fighter Wing USAF NJANG and has been awarded the Defender of Freedom metal of honor by the Commander of the 76th Air Refueling Squadron 514th AMW (JBMDL) by SMSgt Tiger Platt and SSgt Mary Pillion.
Alex has been named 'Honorary Firefighter' by the Brigantine Professional Firefighters member of IAFF Local 2657. Alex is and will be sadly missed.
