It is with deep love and profound sadness that we announce the passing of Otto Josiah Peach of Clarenville, beloved husband, father, father-in-law, son, brother, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend.

Born in Kingwell, Placentia Bay to Wilfrid and Elsie Peach, Otto passed away in the early morning of February 3 at Golden Heights Manor in Bonavista at the age of 93.

Otto was predeceased by his parents, Wilfrid and Elsie Peach, brothers Heber, Calvin and Jim, and sisters Rita, Mabel and Mona.

Leaving to mourn are his loving wife, Rowena Peach; son, David (Kerri); step-daughters, Norma Allen (Chris); Sandra Loder (Ted); and Bonnie Allen (Andrew Lynch); grand-daughters, Halee Peach and Chelsea Hanlon (Brandon); grandsons Lindy Tarrant and Nicholas Loder (Laura), great grand-daughter, Lila Loder; sister, Susie Boutcher; brothers, Fred and Frank.  Otto will also be greatly missed by his ‘Timmies’ friends with whom he met daily for many years.

Otto will be fondly remembered by all who knew him for his quiet, gentle spirit, his penchant for telling funny stories, his love of driving and reading, and his passion for boats and the sea.

The family wishes to thank the staff at Golden Heights Manor in Bonavista for their compassion and care since October.

In accordance with Otto’s wishes, there will be no funeral service. The family will hold a celebration of life at a later date.

    My deepest condolences to your family. I used to meet Mr. Peach on the Riverview Trail when I was running. He spoke of his wife often, his sadness at her going into a home, his sense of gratitude when he told me, “she’s doing so much better in the home”. I loved his stories of the many drives & places he took his wife & again, his gratitude to be able to visit with her every day. Of course there were many other stories he told during our short visits, one walker & one runner. I will miss him. Lyn Gorman

    Ron and I enjoyed our chats with this sweet and gentle man when he was our neighbour in Clarenville. I’ll never forget seeing him walking (fast) past our house every day.
    He spoke proudly of his family and compassionately about his wife. Our sincere condolences to his beloved wife and his family.
