I served and sailed with Pierce while at HC6. I just recently was told of his passing . We had good times both in the squadron and out , at sea or on the beach. He is missed.

Pierce's birthday was Sunday. He would have been 37 years old. And yes, I still miss him.
We bought a new house and this morning I hung my first picture. It was my baby in his Naval uniform. Now it is a home.

It has now been 3 years. I still miss him everyday. I miss his smile, his touch and his "Now Mother" look. This 3rd year anniversary has been the hardest for me so far. His birthday was October 18th. Amy sent me beautiful white roses again for his birthday. She, as all of us, are still struggling. If only he were still here, they could have had a wonderful life together. I know he would not have wanted to live if he was not 100% and his normal perfect self, but it is just so hard to understand and let go. My own mortality keeps popping up now. He was all I had. A friend asked recently about how I felt towards the young man that caused the accident. I said I was still angry and he told me I had to get over it and move on. Easier said than done. People, not even meaning to, can be so insensitive. They tell me these grief spurts go on for years. It just feels like yesterday still. I still want to call him and hear his voice.

It has been almost a year since we lost Pierce. I still miss him so much and long to see his smile. I want to thank everyone for the love and concern they showed Pierce in the hospital and at his funeral. It has been a long hard year for those of us that loved him and I pray it gets easier. If anyone has pictures or memories, I would love to hear from you. Thanks again so much.

Wayne & Family,
BA & I enjoyed hearing about Pierce at Divers Equipment. We felt we knew what a wonderful son he was & how proud of him you were. Such a young person to have to leave us.
Our prayers go out to you.He was doing what he enjoyed when he got hurt.

I never got a chance to meet Pierce, but know how much he was cared for and loved. It is a terrible loss that someone so young is no longer with us. I extend my deepest condolences to all his family & friends.
To the Parman's (and especially Amy)- you know I'm here & always will be. I'm just a phone call away.
Please don't hesitate to ask if there is anything I can do.
God Bless & know He will look after you.
Always your friend,
