Paul was a native and lifelong resident of the Shoals and a member of Leighton Baptist Church. He loved Nascar and any kind of football, but especially Alabama and Colbert County. Paul cherished his girls and his grandbabies very much and thought of his son-in-law as his son. He took pride in his work at Colbert Farmer's Co-Op and loved the work that he did. Paul was preceded in death by his parents, Howard and Janet "Jan" Peden; brother, Larry Peden; sister, Paulette Ledlow; and father-in-law, Paul Grissom.
He is survived by his loving wife of forty years, Tina Peden; daughters, Emily Peden (Megan) and Janna Plunkett (Jake); brother, Leslie Peden; sister, Tina Duncan; and grandchildren, Julianna, Jaxton, Jaycie, and Josie.
Pallbearers will be Jake Plunkett, Jordan Davis, Tyler Minor, Casey Ledlow, Brady Ledlow, and Haden Duncan. Todd Berryman, Jaxton Peden, Derek Aycock, and Leslie Peden will serve as honorary pallbearers.
The family would like to send a special thanks to a special friend, Jordan Davis, for his help and support.
