Bryan Pearson was born January 25, 1981, in Sioux Falls, SD, to James and Bonnie (Cunningham) Pearson. Throughout his life, Bryan served as a volunteer firefighter with the Renner Fire Department for many years. With hard work and dedication, Bryan eventually established his own contracting business and continued working up until his passing. His greatest passions were his wife, kids, friends, family, and anything to do with the outdoors. He lived life to the fullest, always looking for the next adventure. He was a passionate, dedicated, and well-loved man by many. His love was powerful, and he always knew what to say, even if it wasn't what you wanted to hear. He was never afraid to take a risk because with risk comes reward. Bryan loved his family and he always made sure to make great memories, even with the slightest things. Bryan leaves behind: his wife, Lynn, and their baby girl, Leslie; his boys, Austin (Celena) and their children, Mariah, Maleeya, and Evan; his other two sons, Nathan and Isaiah, their mother, Katy; his bonus boys, Noah, Kahne, Jaxon, James, Caleb, and Robert; his grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and great-nieces; his sister, Janelle (Ed); his brothers, Mark (Tara), Jon, and Jeff; and his closest "brothers" and "sisters", you know who you are. He was preceded in death by his father, James; his mother, Bonnie; his brother, Steve; and his nephew, Riley. Bryan will be deeply missed by all of his loved ones.
