Marjorie Ball Brannen Pierce, 80, went home to meet her Lord and Savior on 
Sept. 21.

Pierce was beloved wife of James E. Pierce by second marriage and the late John 
Cooke Brannen by first marriage; mother of John David Brannen (Ruth), Janelle 
Brannen Harlan (Leo) and Matthew Stuart Brannen (Cara); and step-mother of 
Steven Wayne Pierce (Patricia), Scott Thomas Pierce (Joan), Christopher James 
Pierce (Ann Marie), Rebecca Anne Pierce and Melissa Pierce Flanagan (Keith).

Pierce also was grandmother of Sara Flanagan (P.J.), Justin Patterson (Ashley), 
Kathryn Ayo (Anthony), Kristyn Tipton (Micah), Ryan Harlan, Andrew Harlan and 
Jacob Harlan. Great-grandmother of Tyler Desoto, Hunter Flanagan, Benny 
Flanagan, Cooper Flanagan, Juliet Brown-Marshowsky, Brooklyn Patterson and her 
mother, Trisha Langley, Justin Patterson Jr., Austin Ayo, Kinley Ayo and Ellie 
Tipton.

Step-grandmother of Patrick Flanagan, Michael Pierce (Brandi), Elizabeth 
Pierce, Thomas Pierce, Jeremy Pierce (Molly), Emily Pierce, Alexis Herty, 
Taylor Herty, Allen Pierce (Jill) and Stacy Pritchett (Bobby); step-great-
grandmother of Brookelyn Pierce, Katelyn Pierce and Harrison Pritchett. Sister 
of Lynda Wallace (Bill), Martha Grace Watkins (Bill) and Suellen Dooley. 
Daughter of the late Tinsye Crozier Ball and Amos Terrell Ball.

She also was survived by many nieces, nephews, other loving relatives and 
friends.

Pierce was a resident of St. Charles Parish for 49 years. As a devout Christian 
and member of Bible Center Church in Luling, she loved her family, church, 
studying and teaching the Bible, singing, reading and traveling.

As a Bible teacher, she devoted much of her life to spreading God’s word to the 
women of St. Charles Parish and shared this thought with her family, “I want to 
be remembered as someone who lived her life to please the Lord Jesus Christ.”

While she will be sadly missed, her home is in heaven.

In lieu of flowers, donations in her memory may be made to the Bible Center 
Church in Luling or to the Susan G. Komen Foundation (www.komen.org).

Mothe Funeral Homes is handling arrangements.
