Arthur Warren Peake, 64, of West Burke, passed away early
Sunday morning, May 10, 2015, with family at his side.
He was born in St. Johnsbury, Vt., on Oct. 12, 1950, the son of
Warren Arthur and Louise (Williamson) Peake. He and Patti
were married on Dec. 28, 1996.
Art was dedicated to Lyndon State College where he worked for
over 40 years, from snowplowing at all hours during the winter
time to doing whatever needed to be done. He had been the
college's maintenance foreman since 1991. He raised his
garden and apples every year for the deer; Arthur did like to
hunt, but not on his own property! How he loved his beagles!
Patti and Arthur loved to kayak the area ponds.
He is survived by his wife Patti; brother Edwin Peake and wife
Betty of Lyndon, sister Nina Boulanger and husband Richard of
Lyndon; several aunts and uncles; and his nieces and nephews
Stephanie, Melissa, Joshua, Adam, and Krista; and his beloved beagle Abby.
Friends and family will gather on the campus of Lyndon State
College at the Alexander Twilight Theatre this Thursday
morning, May 14, anytime between the hours of 9:30 to 11:30 a.m.
