Twain Peebles

Mr. Pebbles was my favorite teacher in 8th grade at Westport! He was the only reason I made it through that year. I looked him up in hopes to take him out to dinner and thank him. I am 47 years old now and realize what a true treasury he was! I wish I looked him up sooner! I am sorry for your loss! Your Dad was an amazing person!

I remember Mr. Peebles social studies class very well. He was so well liked by everyone and so easy to get along with. But tough when he needed to be. My thoughts go out to his loved ones.

How many times I have thought of Peebles over the years. Always remembering the time and patience he showed us (the kids of Louisville's Portland area.) God could not have blessed us with a greater friend or mentor. Bless his family lord for they have suffered a horrible loss with his passing...

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

what a wonderful teacher ....Always looked forward to his class. He will be missed. prayers of comfort & peace go out to his family.

Rest in Peace Mr Peebles you were a wonderful man as well as a teacher. You were very inspiring to many kids in your teaching years. You will be missed.
Thank you for everything you did while on this earth.
Bless your family and everyone you touched.

I never forgot you Mr. Peebles. You were a great teacher and supported so many kids during their times of need. May you rest in peace. Prayers for comfort in the hearts of your family during this time of sorrow.

Mr. Peebles was hands down one of the best teachers I had at Williams Middle School. He cared about us and made school fun.

Prayers sent to his family and friends. Mr. Peebles was one of the best teachers at Williams Middle School. As many others have said he made learning those darn fractions seem so simple :)

So sorry for your loss, Mr .Pebbles was my favorite teacher at Williams Middle School, he made learning fun and exciting, I have often thought about him over the years, he was an amazing teacher.

Twain was several years older than I, growing up in Beecher Terrace, in Louisville, Ky. Probably before he was even thinking about what profession he wanted to be in, he was a friend and mentor to the youth in the community. Nothing but loving memories.

Mr Peebles was my teacher at Williams Middle School. He was such a wonderful person who truly cared about the students and their future. And a dear friend as well. Heaven is so lucky to have such a wonderful Angel..

He was my teacher at Williams. Middle school. I loved Mr. Pebbles.

I am so very sorry to hear of the loss of "Peebles" as he was known to us at Williams Middle School. He was my teacher, guiding light, friend and confidant; not only to me but to many other students. He was one of the best things about living through those middle years. Thank you, my friend, for being a strong yet compassionate teacher. A life well lived. My prayers are with the family.

I think of Twain as a positive, friendly, funny guy that was easy to like. When I look back, I realize that he was also a person that I could count on for support. In short, he was a great friend. He will be sorely missed by many, and although we lost contact in recent years, he will be missed by me. Condolences from me and my family to the family of Twain Peeples.

Sending up prayers for your family as you walk through that valley of shadows, that you will receive strength and comfort during this time. Twain and I grew up in Beecher Terrace, together, graduated from Central H S, and KSU. He will be, sorely, missed.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Mr. Peebles touched and influenced so many inner city lives....we loved him. May you find peace with all the love headed your way.

He taught us 6th graders at JB Atkinson to slow dance to the tune of the Carpenters, Word Search races, lots of art work, he was also my 7th grade teacher and he provided many hours of support and guidance at the rec center too. He was an all around awesome man and will be greatly missed. RIP Twain Eric Peebles.
