Show Thursday, November 3, 2011 Society Obituaries The Gunnison Valley Gazette 60th Anniversary 50th Birthday Turning fifty is not such a bad thing, After all take a look at what your life had to bring. You've laughed a lot and cried a little too, And of the hard times, you stayed true! You've fallen and stood right back up on your feet, And many good people you've had the pleasure to meet. You've worked very hard and played a lot too, There's not too many people that can do what you do. There are so many people around you that care, And hope at your one hundredth, they will be there. In your first fifty years you've done some incredible things, LaVar W. Peacock LaVar W. Peacock, 71, of Gunnison passed away on Oct 28, 2011.
