Anthony Pearson, Jr. Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jul. 10, 2025.
Anthony Louis Pearson, Jr., affectionately known as "AP," passed away on June 28, 2025, at the age of 33. Born in Sandusky, Ohio, on November 12, 1991, Anthony grew up in Georgia and was a standout football player at Johnson High School in Gainesville. He earned a full scholarship to Savannah State University, where he majored in Business Marketing and proudly joined the Gamma Chi Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. in Spring 2012.

Anthony had a magnetic personality, a bright smile, and an entrepreneurial spirit. He found success at Verizon Wireless before launching his own ventures in real estate and the beauty industry. Above all, he was a devoted father to his beloved daughter, Avery Pearson.

He is survived by his daughter, Avery; his mother, Latasha Prophet; grandparents; siblings; nieces and nephews; and a host of family, friends, and fraternity brothers.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In honor of Anthony's memory, the family asks that donations be made to the fund established for his daughter, Avery.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
