GLORIA LANE PIERCE
May 23, 2020
Gloria Lane Pierce, 82, Oak Ridge, went home peacefully to be with her Lord Saturday, May 23, 2020, after many years of living with dementia.
She was born June 14, 1937, in Big Four, W.Va., to James Edward and Minnie Alice Copeland Lane. After completing high school in Welch, W.Va., she earned an A.A. in secretarial science from Virginia Intermont College in Bristol, Va.
She moved to Oak Ridge in 1957 where she worked at the K-25 Gaseous Diffusion Plant. She met and married her husband, Gerald, at Glenwood Baptist Church in Oak Ridge where they are long-time members. She and Gerald also served almost 31 years at Clear Branch Baptist in Lake City. After raising her family, Gloria returned to work as a church secretary, first at Calvary Baptist Oak Ridge for three years and then at Glenwood Baptist Oak Ridge for 19 years.
Gloria was known for her smile that would instantly make you know you were loved and welcomed. She served her churches as a choir member, G.A. leader, and Sunday school teacher. She cherished working with young people and had a heart for missions; that same loving heart led her to help other church members, especially elderly and absent ones. If she saw a need, she stepped in and filled it. Gloria loved to sing and found great joy in flowers, especially daisies and irises.
She was preceded in death by her parents and her older brother, Melvin.
Left to cherish her faithful and loving memory are: Husband, Gerald; children, Edward (Jessica) Pierce, Randall Pierce, and Nancy Pierce; siblings, Claude (Janice) Lane, Nancy (Don) Lane, Robert (Janet) Lane, and Joel (Wanda) Lane; sister-in-law, Pearl Lane; grandchildren, Julia and Elliot Pierce; and numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews, whom she loved dearly.
Family and friends met at Glenwood Baptist Church, Oak Ridge, Thursday, May 28, 2020, for visitation at noon, and funeral at 1 p.m. with Pastor Mark Walton of Glenwood Baptist, Oak Ridge, and Pastor Robert Lane of Harbour Light Baptist, Princeton, W.Va., officiating.
Interment followed at Anderson Memorial Gardens.
The family would like to thank Stephanie, Cynthia, Chad, and Jamie of Amedisys Hospice and Samantha and Joel of Comfort Keepers In-Home Care for their loving and dedicated care for Gloria. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that you make a donation in Gloria’s name to Glenwood Baptist Church, 200 N. Alabama Rd., Oak Ridge, TN.
