On the recordMay 7, 2010
Kevin Pearce has been recognized as one of the best athletes that Vermont has produced. Like all Vermonters, Marcelle and I hold him in our prayers and thoughts after a devastating snowboarding accident while preparing for the 2010 Winter Olympics. We have heard reports from his parents, Simon and Pia, about his recovery and like all Vermonters, and so many other Americans, we are so thankful he is back home and progressing every day in his recovery. I watched Kevin's interview with Tom Brokaw on 'The Today Show' and he discussed how well he was doing with Tom. I can only imagine how much Kevin enjoys being home with his parents and his brothers and how much we all appreciate his tremendous courage and abilities.
