It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Stephen 'Peanut' Harvey, who passed away on August 16, 2025. Stephen was born on May 14, 1960 to Herbert and Mary Harvey, and his journey through life was marked by his hard work as a painter, dedicated friendships, and unwavering love for his family.

Stephen is survived by his children, daughter and son-in-law Krystal and Andrew Davis, and son and daughter-in-law Stephen Michael and Laura Harvey. He is also cherished by his beloved granddaughter, Bailee Grace Harvey, who brought him immeasurable joy. In addition, he is survived by his brother Michael Harvey and his wife Kathy. He is further survived by cousins Tommy Sparks and his wife Beth, and Scott Sparks and his wife Julie. Along with many nieces and nephews.

Stephen was predeceased by his wife of 31 years, Dedra Harvey, whom he missed dearly; his parents Herbert and Mary Harvey, and sister Nesa. His love for his family, along with his memories of Dedra, will forever remain in the hearts of those he left behind.
