MAHSLING, Rita Catherine 9:30 A.M. BY SHARON MORGAN The Cincinnati Enquirer Wendell Pierce, former superintendent of Cincinllati's public schools, died July 20 at Walter 0. Boswell Memorial Hospital in Denver. The former Hyde Park resident was 82. "Our father was a wonderful man and educator.

He was very important in the education of the children in Cincinnati and in the country," said a daughter, Patrice Hall, director of special education for Denver's public schools. In 1939, Mr. Pierce came to Cincinnati as a counselor and later joined the administration after receiving a master's degree in education from Columbia University in New York. He was promoted in 1959 to serve as superintendent of Cincinnati's public schools. After holding the position for nine years, Mr.

Pierce was selected to serve as the first executive director of the Education Commission of the States in Denver, a nationwide education program. He retired in 1977 and moved to Sun City, Ariz. The Freda and Wendell Pierce Scholarship Fund for young women at Walnut Hills High School, named for Mr. Pierce and his wife, was established this past spring by the couple's seven daughters. "He has been instrumental in his daughters' lives, and we will miss him greatly.

We all have beyond a master's degree. He set high expectations, and we never felt that it was high," said Hall. Also surviving are his wife, Freda of Sun City, six other daughters, Karen Barnott of Seattle, Pamela Hepple of Pittsburgh, Wendy Pierce of Denver, Kristin Defert of Paris, France, Valerie Pierce of Evanston, 111., and Terrill Pierce of Chicago; as well as 11 grandchildren.
