Argul "Bubby" Pierre, age 80, peacefully passed away surrounded by his family at St. Tammany Parish Hospital on Thursday, June 5, 2025. He was born on January 6, 1945 in Folsom, Louisiana to the late Cleveland and Rachel Pierre.

Bubby was a proud veteran of the US Army who was stationed in Korea on the DMZ line. He enjoyed being outdoors tending to his elaborate garden that spans almost an acre, growing an abundance of vegetables. Bubby was known to be a shade tree mechanic, who loved to tinker on anything he could get his hands on, especially old cars and tractors. Cruising the coast was one of his favorite pastimes, where he would admire old cars while spending time with his family making lasting memories they will cherish forever. Above all else, he loved to pick and aggravate his wife, children and grandchildren so he could get a giggle here and there, which will be sorely missed. Bubby was a wonderful husband, father, pappy and friend to all who knew him.

He is survived by his loving wife of 52 years, Sybil Pierre; children, Bridget Bailey (Heath), Heather "Hattie" Pierre, and Arron "AJ" Pierre (Heather); grandchildren, Caleb Bailey (Leah), Sarah Bailey, Mason Pierre, Madison Pierre and Morgan Pierre; as well as a sister, Marley "Pud" Murray.

Preceding him in death were his parents, siblings, Margaret Ann Vining, Daniel "DL" Pierre, Lazar Pierre, Lee Wilbert Pierre, Cindy Thompson; brother-in-law, Thomas Murray; and his sister-in-law, Betty Pierre.
