With hearts full of gratitude for a life well-lived, we remember Franklin “Ted” Pierce — husband to Shirley Pierce (Lapierre), proud father of Cynthia and Kimberley, beloved grandfather to Brittani, Ashton, Thorianna, and Johnny, and cherished great-grandfather to Crawford, Aubrey, Gibson, and Arlo.
Ted passed away in Scarborough at the remarkable age of 92 and lived life on his terms.
Whether he was casting a line in Peterborough , sharing a cold one at the Legion, or simply enjoying the company of friends and family, Ted brought warmth, humour, and a steady kindness that never went unnoticed.
His presence was grand and a gift. His love for his family and community ran deep, and his legacy will echo in every memory we have.
We invite you to join us in celebrating Ted’s life:
