Help Cover Memorial Expenses for Riley Pearce

Hi, my name is Miki Manning and Anna Pearce is my dear friend. On Saturday July 30th, Anna’s husband, Riley Pearce, was the victim of a tragic accident at DeSoto Falls.

Anna and Riley are beloved members of the caving community. Anna is a teacher and Riley worked at Kia. I know that their work families, and their CrossFit family will want to help support Anna during this unthinkable time too.

Of course there will be many hard decisions on the horizon for Anna, but we would like to eliminate the burden of funeral expenses.

Riley was one of a kind. If you knew him, you knew his goofy faces, and his ability to constantly make you laugh. He was an incredible athlete (caver, climber, white water kayaker, and crossfitter). He was also one of the kindest people I knew despite his sometimes hard exterior. He and Anna had been together since high school and dealt with many tragedies together. She will need our love and support more now than ever. So if you are able, please donate. Thank you.
