Larry Edward Pearson February 21, 1942 - May 3, 2021 It is with sadness the family of Larry Pearson announces his passing on May 3rd of natural causes at the age of 79 years old. Larry was a graduate of Boone High School, Class of 1960, and Iowa State University, Class of 1965.

He spent his retirement years volunteering on the Board of Habitat for Humanity of Greater Charlottesville, enjoying his crossword and sudoku puzzles and taking his standard poodles, Phoebe and Reuben, for car rides. He was passionate about cooking and especially loved “Pancake Sundays” and the holidays when he could cook for his family. Larry is preceded in death by his parents, June and Ted, and his brother Roderic. He is survived by his wife of 58 years, Karen of Charlottesville, Virginia; son Scott Pearson and wife Ann of Colorado Springs, Colorado; daughter Maia Bannan and husband Glenn of Charlottesville, Virginia; three grandchildren, Abigail Tutt and husband Davis of Colorado Springs, Colorado, Emma Pearson of Denver, Colorado, and Casner Bannan of Charlottesville, Virginia; and sister Joyce Grabau of Hoschton, Georgia.
