Michael Lin Pearson was born to Mitch & Adella Pearson on July 3, 2007. Everyone celebrated his arrival with fireworks! Michael, Mike or Mikey, no matter what you called him, Michael was always the life of the party.

Michael joined the family as the younger brother of Addie & Lilly and the only boy. He immediately established dominance over mom’s heart and used that to his advantage regularly.

Michael is Love & Light. No matter what the venue, he could find a way to serve someone or make someone smile or laugh. You could not find a better baby-sitter; this boy loves kids & and it wasn’t uncommon to find him entertaining all the little kids at any large function. Michael has a gift for making people feel comfortable and at ease and seemed to move between different groups of people and genres with ease.

Michael did take his own life and as much as it pains us to even say that or put it here after these beautiful memories, we believe it’s important. Michael didn’t have the “signs” and we believe every one of us is susceptible to the darkest of dark moments. If you or someone you know are struggling, help is available. Dial or text 988 to speak with a crisis counselor.

He will be missed terribly. We as his family know the Plan of Salvation is real. The Atonement is real – it’s already been done, and THIS is covered. Michael can and WILL progress. Jesus Christ the creator of all things and the Savior of each person knows Michael’s heart and he will be healed.
