Jimmie D Pearson

Jimmie D. Pearson passed away at the age of 78 in Tulsa, Oklahoma on March 18, 2018 with his loving family by his side. Jimmie was born in Quinton, OK on February 22, 1940 to the parents of Carl D. Pearson and Beulah Marie Pearson (Points). He was raised in Okmulgee, OK where he attended high school and graduated in 1959. Shortly after high school he met the love of his life, Patsy Ann Williams and the two got married in Okmulgee and had two beautiful children together, Ricky and Robin.

Jimmie spent his working career with the Oklahoma Department of Transportation. Working with race horses was his passion. It was what he loved to do. Racing horses, breaking, and training them; that was his life, but he never gave up time with his wife as she was there working right along side him, and they enjoyed going to the horse races together.

Aside from horses, Jimmie loved the outdoors, watching old western movies, Native American history, and reading. He also loved his garden and took extremely good care of his strawberries and fruit trees. He had a green thumb and could grow just about anything. He was the man that people would consider the "jack of all trades" and whenever you needed help with something he was always there. He loved and adored his family and cherished the time he got to spend with them, especially his granddaughters that he loved to spoil.

Jimmie is preceded in death by his parents, Carl and Beulah Pearson.

He is survived by his wife, Patsy Pearson; son, Ricky Pearson (Mary); daughter, Robin Stafford (Doug Parker); brother, Billy Pearson; three granddaughters Nicole Stafford (Mark Schlosser), Toni Stafford, Nikki Pearson; great-grandchildren Kade Schlosser, Makynzi and Brooklynn Campbell, and many other friends and family that will forever cherish their memories of Jimmie.
