Kaye Strunk Peck

From our kindergarten class to our graduation from Westminster, Kaye blended in with all our classmates, then blossomed into an excellent accompanist at WCC. We were both Music Ed./keyboard majors @ WCC. Her obituary spoke well of her. Sadly, she died much too early. The most vivid memory of Kaye was our walks along the railroad bed at our school lunch break: both of our homes were next to the same tracks but about 4-5 walking blocks away from one another. All good memories: treasures that...

To Jeff & Daniel,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss and are deeply sadden. She was a wonderful music teacher who inspired so many children but she was a wonderful wife and mother and a truly beautiful friend and person! We will miss her very much but we are better people for having known her and having her in our lives. God Bless You Both & Give you the strength to carry on her legacy.

Wow. I just found out today and I'm in complete disbelief. I remember being in her classroom, playing piano during chorus. I visited back in June and I had no idea of the struggle she was going through. I wish I had known. I'll always miss you, Mrs. Peck. I only loved chorus because of you.

Kaye ..you are in my thoughts and prayers ..

My deepest sympathies to the Peck family during this difficult time. Mrs. Peck inspired me and my love of music and as a music teacher I can only hope to have the same impact she had on her students, musically and in life in general. Future Hammarskjold students will be missing one of the greatest teachers ever. I will miss you and I'll think of you often.

Kaye was a wonderful friend during college days at Westminster Choir College. I will never forget her exceptional talent as a pianist and accompanist, nor her exceptional, virbrant personality. My deepest sympathies to her family.

Kaye - Your life is the melody that harmonized your family, friends and the hundreds of children that adored you. I bet you are already playing the "The Saints go Marching In" on the celestial organ today in heaven!

Great friend and wonderful person. We will miss her.

I will miss you, Mrs. Peck.
