Leesa Ann Brereton Pearson, 51, of Payson, Utah, passed away on March 1, 2021. Leesa was born on May 8, 1969 in American Fork, Utah to Fred Merrill and Susan Marrott Brereton. She was raised in Lakeshore and attended and graduated from Spanish Fork High School in 1987. During high school she met the love of her life, Bryce Pearson.

After raising her children, she returned back to school and attended MATC Technical College for Medical Assisting.  She started her career with Stonecreek and later moved to Revere health for many years. At the time of her passing she was working for IHC.

Leesa loved adventures. She loved the outdoors, camping, and riding in the side by side especially with her family. She also loved crafts and scrapbooking, but the highlight of her life was her grandkids. She spent countless hours with them. Even with her busy schedule she found time to do Nana day with each grandchild. The grandchildren would talk often about their time with Nana. Because her love was so strong for each of them, they will each carry memories of her for a lifetime and she will be dearly missed by them. She was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and served in many capacities. She was always serving others.

She will be remembered as a loving wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, and friend, who always put the needs of others before her own.
