Evelyn Pierce was born on June 2, 1924, to Juilene and Jack Thomas. She confessed her faith in God at an early age, and was a long time member of Holy Sacraments Lutheran Church. She later transferred her membership to Friendly Temple Missionary Baptist Church in 2011. Evelyn faithfully attended church services and bible studies every week up until her death. Evelyn retired after many years of service as a cafeteria worker at Sumner High School. Evelyn was preceded in death by her daughter, Beverly Jamerison, and grandson, Johnny Williams. She is survived by her children, Gloria Pierce Williams, Avis Pierce (Karl Sr.) Nicholas, Vernon (Sheree) Pierce and Alvin Pierce; many grandchildren, great-grandchildren and a host of friends. She will be sorely missed by all who came to know her. This Online Memorial has been created to commemorate the life of Evelyn Pierce. You are invited to add a Tribute in her memory.
