Bobby Pearson was a great person and he was my assistant basketball coach at Manchester High School during the early 70's. Being a teenager, he taught me a lot which helped me to develop into a better person. I have many memories of him that I'll never forget. One of those memories was when we "introduced" him to the infamous Curly Neal of the Harlem Globetrotters at a local pick-up game.

Dear Mirna, Tanya, Cheryl, Dennis, and families,
   Richard and I were so saddened when we learned of Bobby’s sudden and unexpected death. We enjoyed being around him, and listening to his fascinating life stories told in “inimitable” Bobby style. We will treasure our special memories of him, and hope it is yours that will keep him close forever.
