Hellon Belle Pierce

June 27, 2016

Our hearts rest easy knowing they are together again with the Lord.

Hellon Pierce passed away early on the morning of June 24, 2016, to be with the Lord and Seldon, her husband of 65 years. She was a woman of tremendous grace, and leaves behind a void her family will find difficult to fill.

In a letter Seldon wrote to Hellon on their 50th Wedding Anniversary, he quoted the scripture, “Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her.” (Proverbs 31).  Hellon, indeed, was an exemplary example of a Christian wife, mother, and friend. Seldon ends the letter by writing, “The past five decades have been wonderful having you as my best friend, my lover, and my steadfast companion. Let’s go for another decade and finish the game of life together…come with me. The best is yet to come.”

Visitation will be held Thursday, June 30, 2016, at Walnut Avenue Missionary Baptist Church beginning at 10 a.m. with the funeral service to follow at 11 a.m. with Pastor Bill Adams officiating.

Interment will follow at Bayview Memorial Park Cemetery.

Faith Chapel Funeral Home North is in charge of arrangements.
