Donald "Keith" Peck's Obituary
Donald Keith Peck was born in Alexandria, Virginia on July 13, 1968 - and the family returned to Texas prior to his 1st birthday. He passed on Friday, April 28, 2023.
His intellectual abilities were present at the early age of 4 by reading road signs and asking what the big words meant. Testing in his early teens indicated an IQ of 154.
Stubborn from the get go and would not take guff from anyone.
He could master anything and would tackle problems head on. While attending UT Dallas he further developed his natural artistic talent. Several accidents resulted in physical disability and prevented him from completing his college degree.
