In loving memory of Ronald Pierce, who passed away on October 6th,2026. Born on July 5, 1965, in Des Moines, Iowa, Ronald was the beloved son of Bill and Caroline Pierce. His journey through life was marked by hard work, dedication, and a heart full of love for his family and friends. Ronald was the proud owner and operator of Doc’s Hauling, where he dedicated his career to helping those in his community by hauling scrap cars and metal to the junkyard. Known for his dependability and willingness to lend a hand, Ronald was a cherished friend to many, always there when you needed him. Beyond his professional life, Ronald had a passion for playing pool and a love for music that he shared with his entire neighborhood, often playing his favorite tunes loud enough for all to enjoy. His vibrant spirit and joyful presence left an indelible mark on the lives of those who knew him. Ronald's personal life was enriched when he found true happiness with Tracy Piveral. On February 13, 2011, they celebrated their love by marrying in Las Vegas, Nevada. Together, they built a life filled with laughter, love, and cherished memories. Ronald is survived by his loving wife Tracy, and his sons, Josh Pierce, James Welch, and Cody Piveral. He also leaves behind numerous grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and other extended family members who will continue to honor his memory. He is predeceased by his son, Jesse, and his brothers, Brian Oldridge and Carl Oldridge, whose memories he carried with him. A private funeral ceremony will be held to honor Ronald's life. Friends and family are invited to gather and remember Ronald from 1 PM to 3 PM on Saturday, October 10, 2026. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in Ronald's memory to the Muscular Dystrophy Association, an organization that held a special place in his heart.
