Nicoletta Peatross

Nicoletta Rosetta Peatross (Bunton) age 67, passed away peacefully with family at her side on Wednesday May 1st, 2024 after a short stay at Aspire Senior Living Center in Jonesburg, Missouri. Lovingly called Nicky, she was born June 18th 1956 in Seymour Indiana to Delmar and Ruby (O’Neal) Bunton. She fought a long hard battle with cancer for the last 4 years while continuing to live life to the fullest and make memories with her family and friends. She always kept a positive outlook on life and treasured every day she was given and the time she had with her family more than anything. She enjoyed spending time at the family “river”, hunting rocks, fishing and just enjoying the peace and quiet of nature.

 

Nicky married Warren Wayne Peatross February 12th, 1972 and welcomed 2 children into the world. A daughter, Kathlene (Katy) Sheets and son, Warren Peatross who miss her so very much. Family was the world to her and she spent all the time she could with them. Along with her children she is survived by a brother, John (Carol) Bunton and a sister, Barbara (Jamie )Turnbough, a sister in law Linda Hodge, a son in law, James M. Sheets, grandchildren James W. Sheets, Nicholas (Amber) Sheets, Wesley (Mykenzie) Sheets, Dylan Peatross, Hannah Peatross, Harmony Peatross, Justice Peatross and Riley Peatross.  She was also blessed with two GREAT Grandchildren James and Ariana. She was preceded in death by both her parents, her husband Warren Peatross, her brothers Joseph Hodge and Ernie Hodge, a sister Sue Ross, sister in law Wanda Hodge, brother in law Paul Ross and a grandson Noah Peatross.

Nicky’s family and friends would like to send out a heartfelt thank you to the staff at Aspire Senior Living Center in Jonesburg, Missouri and Three Oaks Hospice. The love, support and care that Nicky received was above and beyond. Words could never express how grateful we are for all you do.

Nicky said many times how blessed she was and what a wonderful life she was given. She wanted her life to be celebrated, for her to be remembered for her strength and not mourn her death.

 

There will be a Celebration of life on June 22nd, 2024 at Grahams Cave State Park under the pavilion at 2pm. (Feel free to bring a side if desired). Although it won’t be the same without her potato salad there will be plenty of BBQ and laughter. Her family awaits all the stories everyone has to share.
