OBITUARY
 Billy
Mac Peacock
1939 - 2015
Billy Mac Peacock of Farmers Branch, Texas, went to be with the lord on
November 12, 2015. Billy was born on August 2, 1939 to Bud and Jaycle
(White) Peacock in Corsicana, Texas. Billy served as an in-flight
mechanic for the United States Air Force. Soon after joining the Air
Force, Billy married his soul mate, wife Patsy Diane (Smirl) Peacock on
March 16, 1960 in Dallas, Texas. Billy and Patsy had two sons, Scott
Allen and Tobin Dale Peacock. Billy hired on with the Dallas Fire
Department in 1964 where he continued to serve the public for the next
25 years. He retired as a lieutenant riding engine 43 one of the top ten
busiest engines in the United States in the mid-1980s. He graduated from
Carrollton High School and later earned an associate's degree in Fire
Science. Billy was the epitome of a husband, father, and grandfather. He
was a man that you couldn't forget even if you tried. He had a heart of
gold that was open to anyone and everyone around him. Billy spent his
free time snuggling with grandbabies, hunting anything that moved, and
always trying to catch a fish bigger than whoever was sitting next to
him. He was a trusted man until he told a hunting story or had his eyes
on your fishing spot. He always had some way of tinkering with things
until they were fixed and always let you know if you pushed or punched a
button or control too hard or too many times. He leaves his family and
friends with enough memories to last a life time and then some. From the
many bowls of popcorn consumed to the countless games of wahoo played at
the dining room table in his home, the warmth in those moments are sure
to last. He was a man that will always be remembered, and we are all
truly blessed to have had the opportunity to be a part of his life. His
love for life and family was a love so strong that it will never be
forgotten. For his enumerable gifts and aid we believe Christ would say
"JOB WELL DONE". Billy is survived by his wife Patsy of nearly 56 years,
his two sons and their wives, Scott and Traci, and Toby and Michelle. He
is also survived by his six grandchildren: Brittni, her husband Jared,
Austen, Chelsea, Brennan Mac, Cody and Whittli, and four great
grandchildren Brynlee, Kelon, Jayli, and Brantley Mac. He was preceded
in death by his parents and his brothers Bobby Don and Gary Alton
Peacock. The family will receive friends at Rhoton Funeral Home in
Carrollton, Texas, Tuesday, November 17th from 6 pm to 8 pm. Services
will be held at Royal Haven Baptist Church, in Farmers Branch, Texas on
Wednesday, November 18th at 10:30 am. Interment will follow at private
family cemetery South of Windom, TX on FM 1743, appx. one mile North of
FM 1550.
