The Words of the Pearson Family |
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
On Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 12:45 AM, our dear brother, Dr. Kevin Pearson transcended to the spiritual world after a long struggle with cancer. He was born on July 8, 1950 and was blessed in the 2075 Couples' Blessing. He is survived by his wife, Susana, and beautiful 14 year-old daughter, Sholina.
Kevin joined the Unification Church in Denver, Colorado in 1973. He attended 120-day Barrytown training and was one of the original members of the Sunburst Band. He traveled with the New Hope Tour, served as a pioneer in Michigan, worked in marketing at News World Communications and was a National Messiah for Malta. For the past 18 years, he practiced medicine as a naturopathic doctor in Highland Park, Illinois.
Visitation will be Monday, August 10 and Tuesday, August 11 from 3:00 to 9:00 PM at the Pearson home. The public is welcome.
A small Seung Hwa Ceremony will be held Wednesday, August 12 at the Pearson home for a limited number of invited relatives and guests.
The Won Jeon Ceremony will be held Wednesday, August 12, 1:00 to 2:30 PM at the Evergreen Cemetery (610 Dundee Ave., Barrington, IL). The public is welcome. Recommended attire is dark suit, white shirt and white tie for men, and white or light colored dress for women.
Donations for the family are greatly appreciated and should be sent to the Pearson home. Checks should be written to the name of Kevin’s wife, Susana Palencia.
Kevin was a truly a filial son of True Parents and a courageous champion in God’s Providence. His life was a persistent quest to realize God’s Ideal and his final days were spent with great gratitude and celebration. We pray for a victorious transition to his new life.
