James Pearson Obituary
"Judy" Ann Carter on July 17th 1952 and was an adoring husband. Judy passed in Sept of 2016. They purchased their home in Penn Valley in 1963. It was their that they raised three sons, Nick, Mark and Russell. James along with his youngest son Russell opened Pearsons Feed in 1986. Today, it remains a thriving business and along the years has become a place for community and friendship.
Through his years James enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren, team roping, playing poker, and wheeling and dealing. He loved to sell trucks and find a good deal. If you came by the store, you would find him with a smile on his face and a good story of his childhood, his years as a hard rock miner and all the wisdom he shared. James was a true treasure and he will be missed by many. May he rest in peace with his family before him.
Condolences can be sent to the family home in Penn Valley.

It's not easy to lose one's dad/grandpa- I hope his passing was smooth and he was with people who loved him.
