Lynn "Tiny" Peavey Obituary

Lynn “Tiny” Peavey, age 63, of Alamo, Georgia, passed away peacefully on July 13, 2025, after a valiant battle with cancer. Born on October 16, 1961, in McRae, Georgia, Tiny lived a life marked by service, hard work, laughter, and deep love for his family.


At just 17 years old, Tiny proudly joined the United States Navy, beginning a lifetime of dedication and resilience. Following his military service, he worked as a trucker and later as a dispatcher for Jones Transportation, where he earned the respect and friendship of many.


Tiny had a larger-than-life personality that lit up every room he entered. Whether he was cooking for his loved ones, cheering on the Georgia Bulldogs, or watching a NASCAR race, he brought passion and joy to everything he did. Above all, he cherished his time with family and was known as the life of the party—quick with a joke, a story, or a helping hand.


He was preceded in death by his beloved parents, Brinson and Dorothy Coleman Peavey; brother Lloyd Peavey; son, BJ Peavey; brother-in-law Doug Anderson; and the love of his life, Christy Peavey.


He leaves behind a family who adored him: daughters Jennifer Wilson (Aaron) of Nicholls and Stephanie Lawrence of Douglas; grandchildren Hunter King (Lexi) of Douglas, Brooklin Griffin (Ethan) of Douglas, Shanna Swails (Diego) of Methuen, MA, and Adalyn Swails of Douglas; one cherished great-grandson, Kash King; three loving sisters Gwen Powell (Keith) of Lyons, Libby Peavey of Alamo, and Donna Anderson of Hazlehurst; and several nieces and nephews. His legacy of strength, laughter, and love will live on through them.


Visitation will be held Tuesday, July 15, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. Funeral services will take place Wednesday, July 16, at 11:00 a.m. at Alamo Methodist Church, with burial to follow in the Alamo Memorial Cemetery.


Tiny will be deeply missed by all who knew him—but his stories, his laugh, and his love will remain with us always.
