Dave grew-up in Wollaston, MA, comes from a large loving family preceded in death by parents Philip G.

(Marianne) Peak Jr. of Marshfield, James Peak of Hingham, Julie DePersis of Scarborough, ME, and Cathy (Roy) Lucas of Wayland. Dave's peaceful passing occurred while vacationing in Naples, FL.
Dave, a United States Marine Corps veteran, graduated from North Quincy HS in 1961 and later attended and graduated from Northeastern University, Cum Laude. Dave worked for Verizon (formerly New England Telephone) as a Project Manager for 43 years and retired in 2004, enjoying a 19-year retirement. Dave enjoyed a full active life from sailing on his sailboat "Nu-Wave" to being a runner with the Hingham Striders Running Club, and skier. During Dave's retirement he enjoyed playing golf at his home course, Weathervane Golf Club, as well as his winter golf in Naples, FL with his many friends, neighbors, and family members whom he treasured. In addition Dave loved driving his Porsche, taking his grandkids out for golf cart rides and ice cream, walks on the beach, and traveling.
