David Monroe Pieratt

David Monroe Pieratt, 77, went to see his beloved Jesus on March 13th, 2026 one week after a stroke that

weakened him. David’s last physical movement was to raise his arm in praise as family gathered around his

bed to sing. David had come to know that, even after walking away from God for a portion of his life, he was

accepted back, forgiven, and unconditionally loved by his Savior.

David Monroe Pieratt was born to Lloyd Monroe Pieratt and Barbara Jean (Mosteller) Pieratt on 11/5/1948 in

Renton, Washington. He was preceded in death by his brother James Lloyd Pieratt, his father, Lloyd Monroe

Pieratt, his wife Annette Truels Pieratt, another brother, Donald Mark Pieratt, and his mother, Barbara Jean

Pieratt. All are waiting in Glory.

David is survived by his daughter Christiana Paxman (husband Simeon), and their two children, Simeon and

Gretta, of Soldatna, Alaska, and his daughter Anna Maren Fateyev of Groelandsparken, Denmark and her 3

sons, Nicoli, Sebastian, and Oliver. He is also survived by his sister, Jeanne Marie Moore (husband Melvin) of

Harvard, Idaho and their 10 children, Maria, Grace, Kevin, Luke, Dusty, Timmy, Emma, Scott, Ralph, and Clint

as well as their spouses, children, and grandchildren.

David attended Evergreen Community Church in Ferndale, WA. A memorial of a life well ended was

celebrated on March 15, 2026 and presided over by his friend and pastor, Steve Finkbonner. Potluck was

managed by Natalie Finkbonner.

David was a member of Sea Scouts during high school and loved being out on the water in his boat most of all.

He and his brother Mark loved fishing, snow mobiling, or riding their Harleys together. David was a member of

the Christian Motorcycle Association in Ferndale, WA.

David traveled across Europe right after high school where he met and married his wife, Annette while

attending college in Aarhus, Denmark. The young couple supported themselves by working with Annette’s

mother making handmade wicker furniture with old world quality. After a time, they traveled to the United

States and lived on the shores of Lake Sammamish, near Issaquah. After a short time back in Denmark

working in Forestry, the young couple came back and built a home in Issaquah, WA. David pursued

construction, building houses from the ground up as had his father, uncle, and grandfather before him. As an

artist, David had a sharp eye for details that made his homes special. He built his last home in Ferndale, WA,

where he enjoyed his final years with his dog, Snuggles.

If David could encourage one more person in one more way, he would encourage you to sit quietly and talk to

God. He is listening, He cares, and He loves you.
