Catherine Céline Peavy, aged 79, passed away on Thursday January 9th, 2025. She was a
beloved mother, wife, and friend who will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Céline was born on July 21st, 1945 in Armagh, Northern Ireland where she spent her
formative years. After she attended school at Sacred Heart in Ireland, she moved to
London, England at age 18. She later met her first husband, with whom she had two
children, Tara and Slean. They moved to the United States in 1968 where she first became
a foreign exchange bank teller at C&S. She eventually found a successful career as a real
estate agent in Atlanta which spanned over 30 years. She was known for her hard work,
keen eye for a good investment and beautiful Irish accent.

More than anything, Céline was a devoted mother & wife. She loved spending time with
her family, decorating the house, baking delicious pies, and cultivating beautiful gardens
at her home in Dunwoody, GA. She was always there to offer guidance, support, and
encouragement to her children. She made sure they knew they could achieve anything
they put their mind to.

She also found time to be active in the community by serving as president of the
Dunwoody Garden Club and was a Master Gardener.

Céline is survived by her loving husband, James (Jack) Peavy, her children, Tara Burroughs
& Slean Peavy and her brothers, Adrian Moynes, Desmond Moynes and her sister in-law,
Fiona Moynes and their children. Her memory will be cherished by all who knew her.
