The members/soldiers of the South Carolina National Guard will forever be indebted to MSG Kearse. He was a wonderful leader and mentor. He was fair and respected for his great leadership abilities and yes we love to hear his stories because he was so articulate. He taught a lot of young soldiers who are now older, wiser and retired (like he did)because of him. He will forever be a person that I was glad and proud to have met. Thanks to his family for allowing us to be taught by such a wonderful man. Retired SFC Beverly Sumter Brooks, SC Army National Guard….take your rest MSG Kearse😥🥰
As a child growing up in Riverview Terrace Mr. Kearse was a community leader, and role model for so many kids. You will be missed. God bless The Kearse family.
To the Kearse Family….we extend our deepest and most heartfelt sympathy. Mr. Kearse will always be remembered for his kindness and goodness.
May his memories make every piece of your broken heart smile.
With much LOVE,
