Aaron Pierce Obituary

Visit the Brotherton Brothers Funeral Home - Charleston website to view the full obituary.

Aaron Alan Pierce, 43, of Lavaca, Arkansas, entered into rest on Thursday, March 5, 2026, surrounded by his loving family. He was born February 14, 1983, in Fort Smith, Arkansas, to Melanie Cole and the late Greg Pierce.

Aaron (Fatt Sexxxy) was a 2001 graduate of Lavaca High School and was proud to be a Golden Arrow. He was a lifelong fan of WWE and proudly considered himself a “Hulk-o-maniac,” cheering on Hulk Hogan for many years and even fulfilling his dream of meeting him in person. Aaron also enjoyed following his favorite teams, including the Texas Longhorns, the Dallas Cowboys, and the St. Louis Cardinals. He loved traveling, with Florida being his favorite destination. In his free time, Aaron enjoyed installing sound systems in cars so he could bump his music, thrifting with his mom, and spending time fishing, especially with his papa and his boys.

Aaron was welcomed into his Heavenly home by his father, Greg Pierce; his papa, Floyd Cole; his sister, Amanda Ann Pierce; and his uncle, Haskell Dale Cole.

He leaves behind many who will cherish his memory, including his grandmother, Charlotte Cole of Lavaca; his mother, Melanie Cole (Mark) of Lavaca; his grandmother, Granny Brown;  his brother, Chauncey Cole (Kaitlyn) of Fort Smith; his sons, Gregory Pierce of Fort Smith and Gabriel Pierce (Candice) of Lavaca; his aunts, Cindy Nelson (Mark) of Van Buren and Kim Cole-Lindsey (Kenny) of Lavaca; his uncle, Eddie Cole (Kelly) of Lavaca; and a host of other aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends who loved him dearly.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to his nurses (who were more like sisters) Micki Walker and Ashley Waterbury, for the compassion, kindness, and support they provided Aaron throughout his time in their care.

A funeral service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Monday, March 9, 2026 at Brotherton Funeral Home Chapel in Charleston, with Pastor Robert E. Mason officiatiing. Visitation will start an hour prior to the service. Cremation will follow after the service, under the direction of Brotherton Brothers Funeral Home and Flower Shop in Charleston.
