Duane Kenneth Pierson Jr.

The family regrets to announce the passing of our father, brother, uncle, and cousin, Duane Kenneth "Noodie" Pierson, Jr. After a five year long arduous battle with cancer, Noodie has earned his rest. From the streets of North Philly, to his Navy enlistment, to the halls of Temple University for his bachelors, to his roles as a dental assistant and later as registered nurse at Temple, Einstein Hospital  and Eagleville Hospital, Noodie charmed all who had the opportunity to meet him. An avid Washington Commanders (HTTR), Nas and Tupac fan, Noodie loved to stir up debates with friends and family. Gone too soon, but a life well lived! He leaves to mourn his son, Quentin (Gabriella), granddaughters, Quinn and Genesis, sisters, Kelly and Ashley, nieces, Sydney and Courtney, nephews Ethan and Evan, and a host of cousins and friends. We love you, Newdoe!
