Barry K. Pierce, 71, of the Elmer / Mullica Hill area, passed suddenly Saturday, March 27, 2021. He was the son of the late Charles and Marion Pierce. Left to cherish his memory are his former wife, Clare Pierce and his children, Hope Pierce of Sparta, TN and Zachary Pierce of Elmer, NJ.

Barry is also survived by his siblings, sister Miriam Pierce of Bridgeton, NJ and brothers Robert Pierce (Becky) of Elmer and Franklin Pierce (Sally) of Columbus, OH, sister-in-law Gladys Hannah of Elmer and brother-in-law Bill VanLeer (Mary) of Bella Vista, AK, as well as numerous nieces, nephews and cousins. Also left to cherish his memory are his "adopted" son Matt Workman and good friends Vic Buondonno and Alfred Darville. Most importantly, "Daddy" will be missed by his fur baby Maxine. Barry taught us all, everyday, that regardless of physical limitation, you get up and do what you need to do! He was well known for his gardening skills, sharing his "rewards" with many family, friends and neighbors, training his grandchildren to "fetch" his beer, playing Dominoes and horseshoe summers. Services will be held on Friday, April 2, 2021 at Adams Funeral Home, 64 Broad Street, Woodstown, NJ 08098. There will be a visitation from 10 to 11 AM and a time of sharing at 11 AM. Interment will be private. In lieu of flowers, please donate to a charity of choice in Barry's name.
