Bobby Buffaloe "Buff" Pearce, Jr., 65, passed away on March 10, 2026 at his home in Franklinton, NC. Buff was born on August 28, 1960 to Kay Minor Pearce-Jackson and the late Bobby Buffaloe Pearce, Sr..

Buff is survived by his children, Nick Pearce, Nicole Black, Emily Pearce, and William Pearce; his mother, Kay Pearce-Jackson; and his brother, Timmy Pearce.

Buff enjoyed going to races, shooting pool, playing the guitar and just generally doing anything outdoors. He was always willing to help others. Buff was a mechanic and a man of all trades, he always had projects going; he loved helping Nick cut grass in the summers. Buff was a simple man, he didn't need much to keep him happy, some knew him as " The Twenty Dollar Man" and others as "Rough Buff" .
