Joe Ed Pierce, 85, beloved family man, passed away unexpectedly Thurs., Oct. 6, 2022, at Washington Regional Medical Center in Fayetteville, Ark. He was born Aug. 3, 1937, to Pauline Hale Pierce and Charles "Edgar" Pierce.
Joe spent his early youth in the Fayetteville, Ark., and Washington County, Ark. areas with his mother, and step-dad, Dawson "Pop" Bailey [#69551879], before moving to Calif. where he graduated from high school. After graduating he moved back to Fayetteville, Ark., and got a job with Swanson's, where he met Brenda Lou Dorsey, whom he married Jan. 11, 1958. He loved and adored Brenda and was quite fond of her wonderful cooking.
Joe loved nothing more than being surrounded by his loud, boisterous family and hearing about his grandkids' activities.
