Dear Family and friends of Mr. Peck, I am so sorry for your loss, he will be sadly missed by all who knew him personally. I know Kim through a business relationship that has evolved into a really nice friendship. I do know Mr. Peck lives on through an incredible daughter who brightens so many lives. I hear Kim's laugh is very similar to her Father, so he lives on in many ways. Not the least of which is a really heart warming laugh and real personal integrity. Being of kindred spirit through the motorcycling community, I know he enjoyed logging the miles. As we ride we will do in remembrance of him. Shiny side up Kim, thoughts and prayers to you and your family.
With Sympathy,

Dearest Linda, Kyme K, Michael and all of your extended family,
I am so saddened to have just now heard of Ken's passing. I wish I had known because I would have wanted to be there to honor the many cherished memories I have of my childhood days with the "bushel of Pecks". Please know that you are all in my prayers and that I carry you in my heart always. Thought I heard some thunder tonight, but it was probably just Ken laughing in heaven! Much love to you all and may God grace be with you, Deborah (Schmidt)
