Gavin Reinhold Peeks, 20, of Elkhart Lake, WI, passed away unexpectedly on June 22nd, 2026, at his home.

Born in Madison, WI, on September 24th, 2005, Gavin spent his childhood in Marshall, WI, surrounded by and deeply loved by his three siblings, mother, and father. Gavin was a man of many hobbies; however, one of his most prominent attributes was his impeccable mechanical skill. Whether it was a snowmobile, mini bike, truck, or car, he was always willing to lend a hand and a tool. He will be fondly remembered for his devotion to helping his friends and family, as he was always just a call away. His impact reached much farther than he could have ever imagined, and he will be greatly missed by many.

One of his proudest recent accomplishments was purchasing his own LLC, "Peeks Performance," as a step toward turning his passion for cars into something of his own. He was excited to begin taking on auto repairs and builds, putting his talents and dedication into work that reflected who he was.

Those who knew Gavin will remember his genuine heart and unforgettable personality. Whether he was making someone laugh, offering advice, or simply spending time with the people he loved, he had a way of making an impression. He lived authentically, loved deeply, and brought happiness into the lives of those around him.

Gavin leaves behind a family who loved him beyond words: his parents, Jason Peeks and SarahAnn Schulz; his siblings, Isabella Sophia Peeks, Ethan Carlyle Peeks, and Ralph Herbert Peeks; and many extended family members and friends whose lives were forever touched by knowing him. His absence will be deeply felt, but the love he gave and the memories he created will remain with them always.

As those who loved Gavin remember him in the coming days, they do so with heavy hearts and immense gratitude for the time they were given with him. They find comfort in the joy he brought to others and the countless memories that continue to bring smiles through the sorrow.

Family and friends will gather to honor Gavin and celebrate the life he lived at a later date. Information regarding the Celebration of Life will be announced as soon as arrangements have been finalized.
