Eugene Walker James Pearce M.D.

So sorry to her about Dr.Pearce passing. I worked in the same building with him at Truman Medical Hosp Hill Bldg. I helped him in the door one day a few months ago, he looked weak. He was a wonderful man. God bless

I was so sorry to hear that Dr Pearce had passed away. I was a patient of his for many years. He delivered 2 of my Children. He was a great man and a wonderful Doctor. My sympathy goes to his family.

It is a rare thing to be able to say that you have walked with giants. Dr. Pearce was a giant of a man, moreso in his heart and mind than even in stature. I rarely walk into the operating room without thinking of him, and I treasure the gentle guidance he provided during my residency training. He was a TRUE Renaissance Man, and I will miss him greatly, but will always think of him with fondness and love.

Words cannot express how blessed I am that Dr. Pearce taught me. His kind words and calm demeanor got us through many a night on LDR. He taught us medicine, but he taught us life. I will remember with a smile his knitting on the unit (Still can't make a scarf), and the theatre he shared with us... the price of admission was an informed discussion of the play and social concepts it addressed. Somehow he kept sanity in a time of my life when I was too tired to think. He will be loved,...

To the Pearce Family
I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Pearce at Truman Medical Center. It was a blessing to get to know such a wonderful person. He will truly be missed by many.

My families thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
Sincerely
Michelle Wineinger & family

I worked with Dr. Pearce at TMC. He truley was a wonderful gentleman. He also had a great sense of humor. He will be missed by many. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Words are inadequate to say how much I learned from Dr. Pearce as a resident at Truman Medical Center. It was more than medicine that he taught to the residents. I was a proud member of the bow tie club he formed amongst the male residents "You should never trust a surgeon who can't tie a bow tie" was our slogan. Our price for a delicious meal at nice restaraunts around K.C. was showing up in a bow tie we had tied ourselves (often w/ his help). His vast knowledge of ethics, history, and...

So sorry to hear of your loss. Dr. Pearce was my Doctor for years. He delivered my first daughter when there was only 3 doctors at Smmc. He also delivered my last daughter and my only grandaughter. I remember when I went for a exam with my last child. He said "It's a girl. He will really be missed. I think he was one of the best doctors in this area. I first met him when I was 19 years. Many years have passed since.

Some years ago, at the request of my sister who worked for him, Dr Pearce paid us a visit in London and we very much enjoyed the company of this fine man and are sorry to learn of his passing.
