Mr. Peavey was born in Exeter June 14, 1847, the son of Samuel and Sarah Gilman Peavey. He had spent his entire life on the homestead farm, which borders on the Squamscott, and the appurtenant fisheries long furnished Mr. Peavey a lucrative avocation. He casually remarked Monday he could not now endure the night work thus entailed at certain stages of the tide. In politics a staunch Democrat, Mr. Peavey had served on the state committee. He had often been his party candidate for representative and other offices and he had served the town as highway surveyor and otherwise. He was a veteran member of the Exeter Sportmen's club and a past sachem of Wehanownowit tribe of Red Men. At the last meeting of the great council he served on the committee on laws. One of the most genial of men and of most attractive qualities, Mr. Peavey had many friends who will treasure the memory of him. He has left his wife; two sons, Leroy D. Peavey of Malden, Mass., who graduated from the Academy in 1894 and from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1898, and Frank G. Peavey, who lives at home; also a sister Mrs. Charles H.

Hayward, 87, of 50 Belvidere St., Laconia passed away on April 6, 2008 at Lakes Region General Hospital. He was born in Laconia on June 11, 1920, the son of Milton and Elsa (Griffin) Hayward.

He served in the Army during World War II as part of the 241st Coast Artillery Battalion in the Asiatic Pacific Theater. He had been employed by Weeks Dairy in Laconia and Concord for approximately 38 years, retiring in 1990. Mr. Hayward was a quiet, unassuming man who never wanted to be the center of attention. He did, however, leave a lasting impression on all who knew him and was held in high regard, respected for simply being a good, decent man. His Yankee humor was well known and enjoyed by his family and friends. For many years, he maintained a vegetable garden and spent as much time as possible enjoying the outdoors, whether it was mowing his lawn or taking long walks. He even enjoyed shoveling snow. When he was no longer able to take his long walks, he joined the Community Wellness Center where he was a faithful member for several years before his illness. At one time he was a member of a bowling league and had a talent for pitching horseshoes. He was a lifelong sports fan and was interested in knowing what was going on in all aspect of sports. He had been an avid reader until macular degeneration stole his ability to read. This was a significant loss for him. He was also well known among his family as a gifted letter writer. This of course also ended with his vision loss. Mr. Hayward taught his family much about perseverance when times were tough. Even when he didn't think he could keep going through the many challenges to his health he found the inner strength to push himself further. Maintaining his dignity and independence was very important to him. His children loved and respected him and will miss him tremendously.
