Oji Pierce

Oji, God needed a pianist so he chose the best one. It was a shock to hear of your passing, as a believer God knows best. Having the pleasure of being a close friend is something that I will hold to my heart.

When we weren't co-writing songs, we were watching movies, laughing and eating loads of munchies. I think about Oji and so many things come to mind. He was private, direct, and very funny. I loved his sardonic humor. After 17 years of friendship, I will miss Oji immensely.

Oji was a caring, compassionate,person who was very private.His positive attitude and view of life was evidenced by his deep spirituality.His genorosity and love of music will endure him to my heart forever.

I am heart broken to hear of Oji's passing! What a beautiful and talented man! He will be greatly missed! May God bless him and keep Oji always!!!

Oji was my very close friend and we felt like family. We wrote music together and talked about God. Oji was my roomate last year and I will never forget those times. He was proud of my every endeavor and made me feel as though I could take on the world. I miss him so much. I am a better person for knowing him. I had the privelage of knowing an angel. I will remember him playing piano for me when I needed comfort and laughter--I will remember our big night out in the limo with all my...

Oji was a good person, thoughtful, and generous. I will miss him.

Oji: A complex person not easily understood whose artistic depth was much more than this industry could accept. You played the game good while garnering much more love and respect then you could have ever imagined. I will miss you little brother. God Bless You and Keep You.

OJI was a true friend. We watched movies, told jokes, ate lots of popcorn, and wrote songs. I will miss him always.

I was saddened to learn of Oji's death. He was a terrific person, a complex thinker, who was also quite thoughtful. In fact, the last time we spoke, he really encouraged me about taking the bar and relocating to NY. I feel better for having known him in this lifetime. Oji lived next door to my family for a number of years and i had grown accustomed to spending at least one of the big holidays with him each year. His playful spirit will be dearly missed.

My thoughts and prayers...
