His over all sense of
design, so appreciated by the Anglo-Catholic element of the Church
is one of providing a setting for awe-inspiring worship to God yet
also encouraging quiet individual devotion. Little wonder he was
chosen by Miss Emily Charlotte Talbot
to build the most magnificent and cathedral like of her many churches
in memory of her brother Theodore and
sister Olivia.
With St. Theodore's Church consecrated on 5th August
1897 Pearson died on 11th December 1897. His funeral and burial
took place in Westminster Abbey.
