Born in St. Paul, MN on Sept 24, 1959 to Max and Marilyn Pearson, and
younger sister to Steve and Brad Pearson
Teresa Joan Pearson was born to Max and Marilyn Pearson and her two big brothers in St. Paul, Minnesota, on September 24, 1959. Terri was a happy little girl, always with a smile that she kept using up to the very end.
She attended Harding High School and was very active in Cheerleading. She participated in numerous beauty pagaents. On two separate occasions she was elected Miss Congeniality because of her charming personality.
After graduation, Terri attended beauty college and opened her first beauty salon at the tender age of 21. Shortly thereafter, she decided to move to Southern California. Once there, Terri fell in love with the area, the lifestyle, and especially the people. She knew she was where she belonged.
She worked as a stylist and entreprenuer in La Jolla, meeting a myriad of new people. She love being with her family and friends, snow skiing, traveling, socializing, and hanging out on the beach with her constant companion, her dog Bonzai. This past October, she went on a cruise to Mexico with her family. Terri, her parents, her brothers and their wives had a wonderful time on the ocean, sharing stories of childhood and family vacations, as well as exploring the beaches of Mexico. They spent five glorious days wrapped in each other's memories while creating a new long-lasting memory of love.
Terri showed the world she was filled with hope, joy and laughter through her sparkling smile, the smile she wore from the day she was born to the day she died with her beloved dog Bonzai by her side. The loss of her bright smile is a light going out in the world. Although Terri will be sorely and deeply missed, she will always be remembered vividly.
We love you, love you, love you.com Terri!
