Peter S Triplett drew his last
breath May 13th, 2020 while in hospice care. Now four years
later, his legacy lives on. Every time a puter goes haywire or
something doesn't work right with the vehicle, most all say to
themselves, Boy, I wish Pete was still here.
He was also the voice of reason and caring. He overlooked
the weak sides and spent his energy coming up with a better
idea, a better plan to get something accomplished. When a
question came up, it was Pete that took his time to find the
correct answer.
There was nothing pretentious about the guy. He was
simply himself no matter what the setting. His idea of being
dressed up was wearing a dress shirt over his suspenders or bib
overalls! That was Pete.
His life was cut short way too soon.
Peter Triplett is missed

From Wilson Smith Funeral Home: Peter Shawn
Triplett, 54, went to be with the lord on May 13,
2020. He is survived by his brothers, Donald J.
Triplett, wife Glenna M. Triplett, Marshall Morgan Triplett
and Jim Asbury(Cheryl) from Daphne, Alabama. He
had two nieces, Carly and Baylie. Peter loved
life and had so many friends. Anytime you saw him
he always had a smile on his face. He helped in
our community whenever possible. Our small town
will surely miss his smile and willingness to help anyone
who asked. He loved his small business, and was
truly a world of knowledge in this field. His
capability to work on local’s computers was unbelievable, as
this knowledge was all self-taught. He played a
big role in many local activities. He was a
member of the Clay Masonic Lodge, Clay Lion’s Club, 911
operator, solid waste authority, helped with the local radio
station and many other things. He was a friend to
everyone. The family would like to thank everyone
that has prayed and shown support during this difficult
time.
Graveside
service will be at 1:00 pm, Saturday, May 16, 2020 at
Triplett Cemetery on Triplett Ridge, with Wayne Litton
officiating. There will also be a
Masonic ceremony .
From Clyde Campbell: To live in hearts we leave behind is
not to die.
