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 Harley’s 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 Washington, 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.
