Timothy Lawrence Peck Jr, affectionately known as TJ, received his wings on August 25, 2025. Waiting to welcome him home were his grandparents Harrison and Nan Peck and Betty Jo and George H. Flack Jr, his aunts Patricia Peck, Ida Jean Flack and Wanda Carroll and uncles Harrison Peck Jr, Larry “Gramps” Peck and George Flack III. 

Born on October 11, 1994 TJ was the only son of loving parents Timothy Peck Sr and Marilyn Flack, whose hearts are broken. His big sister, Marie (Brandon) Wilkerson will cherish the memories of her little brother as will his nieces Braylin, Brielle and Brazeal Wilkerson.  Remembering his light are his aunties Sharon Billings, Vickie McClellan, Teresa Peck, Rosa Ann Flack, Monnie Nolan, Eugenia Ladd and Lucretta Evans. His uncles William (Thelma) Peck, Louis Warren Flack and Boyd Rush (Sissy) Flack will miss his presence. TJ’s earthly absence leaves a void in the hearts of numerous cousins and friends, especially his best friend, Davonice Arnold who was always there for him. The staff and residents too at Next Chapter in Whitley City, Kentucky will fondly remember TJ. 

TJ was one of the sweetest and most kind and courteous young men you would ever meet. He was raised in Strawberry Plains, or as they called it “The Country” and East Knoxville. He graduated from Austin East High School in 2013.  TJ enjoyed family gatherings and was happiest when he was spending time with his family, especially his many cousins. 

To honor TJ’s life the family will receive friends from 3:30 to 4:00 on Friday September 12, 2025 at Community Evangelistic Church 2650 Boyds Bridge Pike 37914. The celebration service will begin immediately after with Pastor Rick Rice, pastor of Greater Ebenezer Baptist Church, officiating.
