"Bob" Pierce, 77, of Epworth, went to his eternal rest peacefully in his sleep on Tuesday morning, Nov. 9, 2004, after gallantly fighting vascular disease for the past 30 years.

Therefore, we will be at the Reiff Funeral Home in Farley from 2 to 8 p.m. Friday for visitation. Friends also may call after 11:30 a.m. Saturday at the funeral home. His cremated remains will be buried at a later date. Mr. Pierce worked at John Deere Dubuque Works for 30 years, retiring as a supervisor in November 1997. He was born on Aug. 2, 1927, in Strawberry Point, son of Harry and Gladys (Whitlock) Pierce. He married Patricia L. Tallman on Dec. 24, 1950, at the Epworth Methodist Church; she preceded him in death on July 30, 1962. He then married Theresa "Pat" Eichacker on Feb. 16, 1963, at St. Mary's Catholic Church, Guttenberg. He served in the Air Force. He was a member of United Methodist Church and the Julien Masonic Lodge 551. He served as a councilman for the city of Epworth. Bob loved life, his God, his family, a proud father and grandfather. He was a quiet, gentle man with a rare and unique sense of humor. He enjoyed hunting trips with his brothers, winters in Florida with his wife, and in recent years, just being in God's nature fishing with his buddies. He was an avid reader and traveled many places without ever leaving his recliner. Those left to cherish his memory are his wife, Pat, of Epworth; four children, Connie (Terry) McDermott and Don (Michele) Pierce, both of Epworth, Sherie (Greg) Kuhlmann, of Peosta, and Bob Pierce II, of Dubuque; three brothers, Tom (Dot) Pierce, of Mount Dora, Fla., and Dick (Sandy) Pierce and Jerry Pierce, both of Guttenberg; five sisters, Jane (Dale) Sweet and Rita Hefel, both of Giard, Jean (Ed) Wall, of Epworth, Vera (Darwin Goeschel) Finzel, of Dubuque, and Donna (Mike) Lutz, of Bull Head City, Ariz.; nine grandchildren, Tara, Eric and Leah McDermott, Samantha Hollenback, Josh Pierce, Emily and Ben Kuhlmann and Savanna and Madeline Pierce; a great-grandson, Jack McDermott; a very special former daughter-in-law, Jennifer; three sisters-in-law, Rose Feldmann, of Monticello, Helen Niday, of Dubuque, and Gloria Pierce, of Guttenberg; and a brother-in-law, Bob (Ann) Eichacker, of Dubuque. He also was preceded in death by sisters, Myrt Kruse and Martha, in infancy; and two brothers, Perry and Bill Pierce. We are so thankful for the loving care he has received through the years from Dr. Liaoe, Dr. Martin, Dr. Whalen, the nurses at Tri-States Dialysis, and in the last years, for his most special angel nurse, Sue.
