Piers worked in the Fishing Factory and as a fisherman for many years. Later he worked in the Public Works Department until he retired. He was also part of the team who built the Tristan Thatched House for the Tourism Department.

Piers thoroughly enjoyed working at the Potato Patches, which he did up until just a couple of weeks before his death. He was at his happiest when he was busy. He was always cheerful, smiling and caring to all who met him. He will be greatly missed by family and friends.

The family would like to thank everyone who supported them and sent messages of condolences during this difficult time.
