Lee Warren Peck was born April 20th, 1932, to Jamie A Peck and Marybelle (Williams) Peck, in Watonga, Oklahoma. Lee was the second of three sons in the family with older brother Jamie E. and younger brother Lawrence. The family moved to a ranch after World War II near Barnsdall, Oklahoma and Lee graduated from Ramona High School in 1951. He served 2 years in the Army during the Korean conflict, returned home, and attended OSU, studying Construction Management.

Lee married Eva Geraldine Gaylord whom he met while at Stillwater. They had three children Kelvin, Warren, and Donna. Lee soon started working for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as a soil's specialist. He worked on several of the earthen dams/ lake projects built by the Corps around Northern Oklahoma and Southern Kansas. Lee worked his way up and was an inspector on the Skiatook Dam project. He retired after 30 years of government service. Lee always was a mechanic working on cars, trucks, and tractors. After retirement the Tulsa Vo-Tech finally offered daytime classes for adults for Aircraft mechanics which he was in that first class. He graduated and got his FAA A&P License. Lee started a second career with American Airlines, he always said he was the oldest "junior" mechanic at 54. Lee was fascinated with mechanical things, and he was always fixing things. Along with his son Warren he rebuilt and restored several small aircraft, one in which he used to obtain his private pilot's license.

Two of his favorite hobbies were building grandfather clocks and restoring old John Deere tractors. Lee had a fondness for making an old engine run when maybe others could not.
