Donnie Pierce

(From Lockwood Funeral Chapel)

On Saturday, August 1, 2020, the life of Don William James Pierce of Carthage, MO, age 42, was ended suddenly in a grievous criminal act in Carthage Missouri.

“Donnie”, as he was known by family and friends, was born to Don Milton Pierce and Joy Lynn Stoll on December 4, 1977, in Kansas City, Missouri. He went to Lockwood High School and spent most of his adult life in southwest Missouri.

Donnie was a gifted mechanic, loved to fish, hunt, spend time outdoors and spend time with his six children. He was a gifted arborist, love to have fun, love to laugh and help and see others laugh. Donnie followed the Savior Jesus Christ example of loving and helping those less fortunate than he was. 








He was preceded in death by his grandpa John Stoll, and his brother Lonnie Pierce.

Donnie is survived by his six children, Tyler Pierce, Dylan Pierce, Delaney Pierce, Donnie Pierce, Friend Pierce, and Pherix Black; his mother, Joy Brisco and her husband Doug; his father, Don Milton Pierce; and siblings, Elaine Kuepper, Phillip Gonzalas, and Desiree Coose.

He’s also survived on his Mother's side by his Grandmother Fern Stoll; his aunts, Sherri Stoll, Teri Sparkman, and Stephanie Auffert; and his uncle, Tim Stoll.

Donnie is survived on his father side by his grandparents, James and Joyce Coons; his aunts, Patty Joyce, Joy Hinds, and Bobbi Lowery; his uncle, Jimmer Coons; along with countless friends, cousins and other family members.

Donnie will be missed by all as much as he was loved by all.
