Published by Legacy Remembers on Nov. 19, 2016.

Margaret Wilson Pierce, age 92, of West Palm Beach, formerly of Scarsdale, NY, passed away on November 18, 2016. A graduate of Syracuse University, Margaret was a volunteer ambulance driver in Washington, DC, during the War years, and later enjoyed volunteering at the Church Mouse shop of Bethesda-by-the-Sea Church in Palm Beach. Margaret was a woman of few words but strong convictions, always guided by her faith. She enjoyed a good laugh and being around interesting people. She especially enjoyed being a mother. Margaret was the beloved wife, mother, mother-in-law and grandmother of Hugh, Charles, Anne, Christopher, David and Robert Pierce. A memorial service will be held at Bethesda-by-the-Sea Episcopal Church, 141 South County Road, Palm Beach, FL, 33480 on Friday, December 9, 2016 at 1:00pm.
