I travelled with Gene for many years  for business and as we traveled he always shared an  interested  in the  family, kids. Always so personable and friendly with a smile. We will miss him.

I knew Gene from Maranatha Chapel he always had a ready smile and was a brother and faithful servant of the Lord.  He will be missed by all who knew him.

I have known Gene for longer than I care to admit. Gene & I attended the early SD ERA meetings together. Gene was the friendliest competitor I have ever known. Peake family be proud, Gene was the very best & he'll be missed by all of us. My thoughts are with you. Joe Casali Mesa

I don't believe I ever saw Gene without a smile. He was a gentleman and a very positive influence to everyone who knew him. My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time. May you find peace during this time.

Gene, I truly love you. You are the best. I will greatly miss you. I know you are in good hands now and we will meet again. Sure will miss you beautiful heart.

Gene conducted his business with integrity and fairness. He was admired, because he was so nice to everyone. 

Rest in peace old pal, 
Barney

I 'm so sorry to hear of Gene's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with the Peake family.
I worked a lot  with Gene when he was with G.E. Capacitor many, many years ago. GE caps was Tony Hamilton's first Line at Hamilton Electro Sales, I really enjoyed working with Gene "back in the day". We did a lot of business together when I was selling for Hamilton/Avnet. RIP Gene.

Known Gene for almost 38 years.  Kindness man ever, biggest happy heart. He will be sorely missed.

Gene was very influential in my career development.  As a young man right out of college he really helped me, showed patience and care.  An exemplary guy.
RIP Gene, and thank you SO much.

Known Gene for almost 40 years. Never heard him utter an unkind word about anyone.  Honest, hard working, and very good natured.  A real gentleman.  Bon voyage,  old friend.

Gene Peake.....The Gentleman's Gentleman. He was one of my very favorite people in the San Diego Electronics Representative Association, where we first met. He was very instrumental in the advancement of that organization and was loved and respected by all. The ever-constant smile and soft humor will be well remembered. Aloha Nui Loa, Gene

Gene's contributions to the electronics industry, and the Electronics Representative's Association in San Diego and nationally should be noted. He will be missed.

Uncle Gene, You will be missed by so many here. You were a very special man and I will especially miss all the great advice and wisdom you gave me. You were a very loving and caring individual and the world needs more people like you in it. Thanks for taking over the "father" role after my Dad passed away. Heaven has gained an awesome man!

You were such a kind and caring man.  Always showing Jesus thru everything you said and did.  We will miss you terribly.  Always remember your service at church in the ushering ministry and your ever present calm and serene spirit.

Much love to my Uncle Gene, my Dad's youngest brother.  What a wonderful reunion of the 5 brothers in heaven!  You were very special to me, my favorite Peake uncle!  Always there for me when things were tough.  
Psalm 119:50:
My comfort in my suffering is this:  Your promise preserves my life. 
You are now whole again with no suffering, at the right hand of our Lord and Savior.  Much Love, "Pammie"

Gene you were a great person and a great friend. And all Braeden could say grandpa is the best. Wish you well in heaven see you one day. Your were a person to look up to.
