The family of William H. Pierce, age 84, has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to participate in honoring his life and service to his country. It will be a privilege to do so.
William Pierce honorably served in the Korean War from Jan. 5, 1951 to Jan. 8, 1955 as an Airman First Class in the United States Air Force.
After his service, William worked as a computer programmer/engineer for Rockwell International. William also worked on the Minuteman Missile Program as we all know is the foundation of our Nuclear Missile program.
When William wasn’t working he enjoyed dirt bike riding, music, playing piano and dancing.
He is survived by his wife of 55 years Frances Carolyn Pierce, his daughter Sue Allen, his son John David Pierce (who is an active duty Marine) and three grandchildren.
