Prune off any really badly infected leaves, discard the leaves and disinfect the shears inbetween cuts.
The leaves may fall prematurely.
I will look in my books in the morning.
That is serious! I would get someone to look at it and take care of it asap!

I know, I called them yesterday. With all the rain we've been having I can't get anyone to come out for two weeks. They're behind, but at least they're coming.

Thanks all for the recommendations!

My husband called the nursery where we purchased the tree and they said it was a fungus due to the wet weather we had in April & May. They said all the pears have it and it's no biggy, that the effected leaves would fall off and you just remove them or we could go to HD to buy an anti-fungal spray for the tree.
