Robin Peck passed away on Friday April 30th surrounded by family. Robin Joy Lambert was born on September 27, 1961 to Rita (Stewart) and Boyd Lambert. She was the first grandchild on both sides of the family.

She is survived by her dad, Boyd and stepmom, Dixie Lambert, her brothers, Rex Lambert (Vickie Dolan), Todd (Carrie) Bingham, her sisters Jodie (Brad) Reeh, Gina (Jim) Heins, and her Halligan step siblings Scott, Deb, Lisa, Angie & Pat, her stepchildren Amy Peck and Josh Peck (Korttni Dubry), her grandchildren, Angelica Gale, Gavin & Gracie Peck, Kane, Kooper & Callie Williams and Jona Knapp. She is also survived by many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends including her favorite hockey goalie, Brian George of Michigan.

Robin grew up in Kennard and graduated in 1980 from Arlington High School. She later lived in Colorado, North Platte and Kennard for many years moving to Blair in 2013. She was married to Don Peck on July 4. 1997. They later divorced. She was preceded in death by her mother, Rita and stepfather, Merle Halligan; her grandparents Joe & Jane Stewart and Fritz & Martha Lambert, her ex-husband Don, her stepbrother Mike Halligan, her aunts Marva Allison and Lynn Wulf, her uncle Mark Kuhr and her cousin Mark Wulf.

Robin was an avid hockey fan. She especially loved the Omaha Lancers and also any team that her favorite hockey player Paul Statsny played for. She was fortunate to be able to travel to Detroit (both Joe Louis and Little Caesars’ Arenas), Toledo, Topeka, Chicago, Kearney and Lincoln to watch hockey games. One of her favorite pastimes was playing cribbage with “the boys” (Marty & Richard). If she wasn’t watching hockey, you could find her at the sewing machine working on a quilt for family or friends.

A celebration of Robin’s life will be held on Saturday, May 8 at 10:30 a.m. at Campbell Aman Funeral Home with a visitation with family on Friday, May 7 from 5 to 7 p.m. at the funeral home. Memorials are suggested to the Omaha Lancers Booster Club “Orange Bus” fund, c/o Shannon Rice, 1393 County Road 35, Omaha, NE 68142. The family requests casual or hockey attire be worn. A livestream of the service will be available at campbellaman.com.
