Condolences & Tributes
Add A CondolenceMy deepest condolences to the family and loved ones of MSG(Retired)Pierce. Sharing in your sadness and sending healing prayers and comforting hugs. Here was a great man with a legacy left behind. Now that he is gone may your beautiful memories be a blessing to you and the family. May God give you peace and strength daily. Zandra Day
Eric, Jen and Andrea, I cannot envision how painful this time must be for all of you. We are so sorry. Be cognizant that we are all thinking of all of you and wishing all of you strength as you deal with so much grief. The Pierce Family.
Ardria, I cannot conceive just how devastated you must be feeling over the loss of your spouse. Our hearts goes out to you, in this challenging and difficult time. From Charles and Dorothy Pierce
Praying for your family, You will always be in my heart. From the Tripp and Murray family
I want to offer my condolences to the family and friends. It is a painful thing to lose someone very precious, yet no one else can really know all that you feel except our Heavenly Father. He knows and feels your pain. Allow him to give the comfort you need at this time through prayer as he invites us to do at Philippians 4:6, 7 “…in everything by prayer and supplication along with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God;7 and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus.” He has promised that under his Kingdom rule he will remove sickness, old age, and death from his human family (Isaiah 33:24; Job 33:24, 25; 1 Corinthians 15:26). May you be comforted by these words.
