We were blessed with the gift of time together In retirement for thrilling adventure, love, and the glorious mundane. Memories are vivid,signs many; this late in life connection unexpected. Frank had a way of making a trip to the supermarket hilarious. We laughed. Got silly, argued. And shared all aspects of life. He supported all of my ventures, and was well loved by many. A man,s man w a strong feminine side. Putting others first. And humble. There for the tough times. My Frank.

I knew Frank Peace, while living with my Uncle in Newton, in the years of 2012 - 2014, and in later years.

I assisted Frank with leaf raking, during Fall seasons, along with other outside home tasks during the year.

Frank treated me well, so enjoyed Frank's affable personality during the short time known.

I could tell Frank raised a loving family, with beloved wife Karen, in their fine home on Centre Street Newton.

An honor and privilege to have known Frank, who will be missed.

Sincere condolences to the Peace family.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of knowing and working with Frank at First Parish in Brookline.
One year he tapped the sugar maple in the front yard of the church and made syrup from it. Frank brought that syrup to the church's pancake breakfast. Sweetness made from the church's own space by a man who cared so much about the people who came together there.
A perfect gift.

I am so grateful for the care with which Frank watched over our buildings and grounds at First Parish in Brookline. His departure from the job left an enormous void, and I can only imagine how much bigger the loss is to his family and close friends now that he has passed on. I believe his last name matched his personality. Thank you for sharing him with us!
