Meghan Margaret Pierce, 50 of Peterborough, passed away peacefully at Monadnock Community Hospital on July 7, 2023 after an illness. She was born in Burbank, CA on January 31, 1973, the daughter of Michael and Helen Mary (Brennan) Fisher.
Meghan was an award winning journalist and co-founder of the hyper-local news website, the Monadnock Beat - where she covered the goings on of the Monadnock Region, it also functioned as her love letter to the community. Meghan served the region for nearly two decades with journalistic integrity, her gift for storytelling, and her drive to do the stories of her community justice.
Meghan had a talent for singing and a great passion for music. She sang with the Divine Mercy Church choir for many years as well as directing The Divine Mercy Parish Youth Choir for four years. Meghan took great joy sharing her passion for music with younger generations.
Meghan is survived by her daughter Eve, her sister Bernadette, her brother-in-law Sean, her close friends Mandy and Faith, her son-in-law Reo, her mother Helen Mary, her brother John, and her many siblings, nieces, and nephews.
A Celebration of Meghan's life will take place in the Upper Hall of the Peterborough Town House on August 1st from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., with a private family funeral to be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Meghan's name to the Peterborough Sunshine Fund 20 Depot Street Suite 312, Peterborough, NH 03458 or donated to the Monadnock Beat Bar Harbor Bank and Trust, PO Box 657, Peterborough, NH 03458 to help her survivors continue her legacy of serving the region.
