February 23, 1957 - February 5, 2026

Dean Peyton, 68, passed away on February 5, 2026. He leaves behind a legacy of strength, craftmanship, perseverance, and unmistakable character.

Dean is survived by his 3 children and 3 grandchildren. Family and friends were everything to him, and his legacy continues through them and the generations that follow.

A longtime member of the Boulder City community, Dean loved the town’s character, sense of tradition, and close-knit spirit. It reminded him of his Southern California coastal roots-a place where hard work, authenticity, and community still mattered. He built lasting friendships here and deeply valued the people who make Boulder City special. He also carried a deep love for his country and believed strongly in the values of freedom, responsibility, and resilience that shaped both his life and the nation he admired.

A master of restoration, he found satisfaction in rolling up his sleeves and bringing things back to life. He faced life’s challenges head-on and was always thinking ahead. One of his favorite sayings was “Hammer Down.”

Dean lived with purpose and conviction, guided by an unshakable work ethic. His hands built, restored, and improved the world around him, and his presence strengthened the community he called home. His legacy will continue to echo through Boulder City and beyond.
