Seldon Agustus Pierce

December 28, 2015

Seldon was born on July 23, 1930, and was the only surviving child of Vernal S. and Lillie Mae Finch Pierce. He was born again on February 25, 1951, one of the many children of Jehovah God, maker of the universe.

Seldon was preceded in death by his parents and his favorite dog, Cody.

He worked for Chemstrand and Monsanto for 32 years and as a freelance writer for 15 years. He lived a sinner all of his life and has now, as of December 27, 2015 overcome that inebriated trait.

He leaves behind his faithful wife of 65 years, Hellon; daughter, June Reynolds; son, Robert E. Pierce (Sun); two granddaughters, Jennifer Pierce and Stephanie Guyette (Brian); and his loving dogs, Ginger, Troy, Penny and Ruby and grand-dog, Anubis.

Friends may visit Walnut Avenue Baptist Church for tales of Seldon’s antics and happy fellowship with each other between the hours of 12:30 p.m. until 1:30 p.m. on December 30, 2015.

Funeral services will begin at 1:30 p.m.with Pastor William (Bill) Adams officiating.

Interment will follow at Bayview Memorial Park Cemetery.

Faith Chapel Funeral Home North is in charge of arrangements.

    Seldon Pierce was a dedicated husband, father,writer,historian, and friend to all who knew him. He lived his religion as Pastor Adams said in his eulogy today. RIP dear friend.

    Brother Sheldon was a wonderful example of a Godly Man. He leaves us all with precious memories of a beautiful christian life. Thank you God for letting us share time with him. He was an inspiration to all that had the opportunity to know him. May God’s comfort sustain his family through this difficult time.
