Lori, I was sorry to see that Jim had passed on. This morning, I was writing a common college friend Foo Lam who was 93 this year. I looked Jim up on the internet, not having heard from him in quite a while, and unfortunately found his obituary. You probably remember that Jim and I met in 1956 as freshmen in an honors math class at NMSU. He said he wanted to teach math in high school. Instead, he got his PhD in math and taught in college. I'm sure he was an excellent teacher. We enjoyed our visits with you and Jim on your trips with us up the Lake Superior North Shore and also in Ames. Our sincere regrets on hearing this. I know the past few years have not been easy for you.

Lori, we are thinking of you. We haven't been in touch for some time but I know you must miss Jim so much. It has not been an easy journey the past few years. We live so close we ought to connect more often. Peace to you.

As an academic advisor at ISU, on various occasions over the years I worked with Dr. Peake . He was such a kind, gentle, helpful man; and I, and no doubt countless students, benefitted from his unassuming, wise, and patient manner. For many math is not the easiest subject to learn; but he helped so many students do just that and advance successfully into programs requiring those skills. Well done, Dr. Peake. Ellen Holm

We played bridge with Lori and Jim for many years every Thursday morning. Jim was a very good player. He was also a very pleasant friend and contributed many interesting tidbits to our conversations. We are sorry to learn of his passing and will remember him with fondness.

I knew this day was coming.
I just wasn't ready.
I bet Lori and the rest of your family weren't ready either.
I doubt we would have ever been ready.
I'll miss our Sunday Zoom talks (that I'd sadly been missing this last month, and for that I'm so sorry!) and your stories.
Fly high Jim...

RIP my mentor, my church family member, more importantly, my friend.
