Robert Peabody Obituary

Robert Grant Peabody

Robert passed away peacefully Thursday, December 06, 2018 surrounded by the love of his family of whom he cared for first and foremost. An unfillable void has been left in his place. His sense of humor, gentle loving nature and thoughtfulness will be forever missed.

Robert was born in Washington DC on May 29,1964 before moving to Maynard, MA and eventually landing in North Texas as a teenager. He later moved to Denton where he graduated from North Texas State University. He spent his adult life living in both Aubrey and Denton with his beloved wife, Janita, and two daughters.

Robert is preceded in death by his father, Eric Peabody. He is survived by his mother, Blanche, his wife of 30 years, Janita, two daughters, Desiree (David) and Sandra, his two grandchildren who sparkled in his eyes, Oliver and Violet, four brothers Joseph (Loan), Lawrence (Rebecca), Alva (Denise), and Daniel (Terina), and many in-laws, a few outlaws, and 19 cool nieces and nephews.

Robert will be remembered as a big P1 who really liked websites, but hated rye bread.

Rest well, Robert. You lived it all the best way, your way.

We will forever love and miss you.

In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to Scottish Rite Children's Hospital. Per Robert's request, there will be no memorial service.
