Lori A. Pierce

July 30, 1964 - January 28, 2025

SCIO – Lori Ann Pierce, 60, unexpectedly passed away at home on Tuesday (January 28, 2025) as a result of a medical incident.

Mrs. Pierce was born on July 30, 1964 in Montour Falls to Leslie E. and Jane F. (Riley) Knickerbocker. She was a 1982 graduate of Whitesville Central School. On July 2, 2011, Lori married Kevin R. Pierce, who survives.

In addition to her husband of 13 years, Lori is survived by four children, Erica J. (Gary B., Jr.) Bliss of Genesee, Pa., Wade A. Knickerbocker also of Genesee, Pa., Amber L. Knickerbocker of Belmont and Terra Pierce of Friendship; two brothers, Willis (Kelly) Haring and Matthew (Virginia) Haring; 20 grandchildren; two great grandchildren; and several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins.

Along with her parents, she was predeceased by two sons, Larry Knickerbocker, Jr. and Ty Pierce.

Lori loved her family, especially her many grandchildren. She was a strong lady that when she said no, that meant no. When she looked at a situation and a decision needed to be made, she wasn’t one to sugar coat the problem but attacked it with reality.

Lori and her husband Kevin made quite a team. She was a big help on the farm with no chore too difficult or messy to be taken on with gusto. Together they made quite the team when it came to horseshoe competition. She was a long-time member of the National Horseshoe Pitching Association and was active in many tournaments. She served as Secretary of the Wellsville Community Horseshoe League.

A time of visitation will be held on Saturday (February 1) from 10-12 at Baker-Swan Funeral Home in Scio/Wellsville. The funeral service will be held immediately after the visitation at 12:00 with Minister Glen Layfield of the Restoration Church of Christ in Scio, officiating. Burial will take place at Genesee Cemetery, Genesee, Pa. Online condolences may be offered at www.baker-swan.com. © 2025 Baker-Swan Funeral Home.
