Annette Pierre, 72, of Milton, MA, passed away on Wednesday, November 3rd, 2021 at 5:00 a.m. She was born on February 8, 1949 in Gonaives, Haiti, the daughter of Charleron St Facile and Justine Aristide. She attended the school Les Dix Doigts in Gonaives, and then, Le Centre Technique des Arts et Métiers in Port au Prince where she met Fritz Pierre. They got married in 1974.

Annette was kind, generous and loving. She lived a life of service, visiting the sick, praying for the outcast and giving generously to those in need. Her journey and foundation in Christ began at the First Haitian Baptist Church in Port au Prince. She was an active member at the Faubourg Salomon church, then transitioned to the Church of God of the United Brothers in Brooklyn, NY. She served as a deacon to the church, a role she took seriously and loved. She was also part of Rencontre Matinale, Reparateur des Breches and many other prayer groups. She was a leader in the women group and a mentor to many parishioners.

Annette spent several hours a day worshipping the Lord. She was always on her knees, asking God to protect the youth and praying for forgiveness for the whole family. The Church of God of the United Brothers became a second family to her. When she was not at home, she would be with her church family or at work. Sickness could not keep her from going to work to help the poor in Haiti. She had a list of pastors to support on a regular basis. In her last days, when she could no longer do it, she made sure that her nieces, Elsie and Mirlande continued with her helping mission.
