Stephon Peake

April 11, 1997 — April 5, 2026

April 11, 1997 – April 5, 2026 It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we announce the passing of Stephon Peake, a beloved son, brother, and friend, who left this world on April 5, 2026, just shy of his 29th birthday. Born in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania, on April 11, 1997, Stephon was a beacon of light and joy to all who had the privilege of knowing him. Stephon's life was rooted in the warmth and love of his family. He is survived by his devoted mother, Stephenie Peake, and his siblings, Caleb Culpepper, Kayla Peake, KayInn Peake, and Kerry Peake, as well as Danielle North. His extended family and a myriad of dear friends also feel the profound loss of his passing. From a young age, Stephon demonstrated a unique ability to connect with others. He attended Aliquippa High School, where he not only built an education but also forged lifelong friendships. His presence was one that naturally drew people in; his laughter was infectious, his spirit uplifting, and his kind heart a refuge for many. Stephon was known for his genuine and bright spirit. He had an innate sense of humor and a natural ability to bring smiles and laughter even in life's most challenging moments. He was a man who lived to uplift others, always putting the needs and happiness of those he loved before his own. His personality shone with a light that could fill any room, and his absence leaves an unmistakable void. Family was the cornerstone of Stephon's life. He cherished the moments spent with his loved ones, whether it was sharing stories around a dinner table, enjoying a casual game night, or simply being together. His loyalty and protective nature were evident in the way he showed up for his family time and time again, always ready with a comforting word or a helping hand. In the face of adversity, Stephon displayed remarkable strength and resilience. He met life's challenges head-on, never allowing them to diminish his kindness or his ability to smile. His courage and determination were an inspiration to all who knew him, and his love and laughter leave an indelible mark on the hearts of those who had the blessing of knowing him. A celebration of Stephon's life will be held on April 19, 2026, at 11:30 AM at the Church In the Round, located at 784 Griffith St, Aliquippa, PA 15001. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to be made in Stephon's honor through the "Honoring Stephon Peake’s Life & Farewell" fund at https://gofund.me/d8220d778. As we gather to remember Stephon, let us hold onto the promise that "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” (Psalm 34:18) and take comfort in his enduring faith as he would have reminded us, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.” (2 Timothy 4:7) Stephon’s life was a gift to all who knew him. His laughter, kindness, and love will never be forgotten. Though he is no longer with us in body, his spirit will forever live on in the hearts of those who loved him.
