He was born March 14, 1926 in Granite Quarry, to the union of Carl Banks Peeler and Pearl Lyerly Peeler. He served his country proudly in the United States Navy during World War II. For 50 years, he was a member of the American Legion.
Wallace was a tax supervisor for Rowan County for 30+ years. He was a Pentecostal by faith and member of the Pentecostals of Alexandria, serving as an usher for 17 years. Equally as important to him was his family, Wallace was a loving husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, uncle, and friend. He was a great man!
He is preceded in death by his parents; daughter-in-law, Becky Peeler; son-in-law, Larry Spivey; grandchild, Judith Smith; one sister, Virginia Carter; two brothers, Carl Banks Peeler, Jr. and Billy Rufus Peeler.

Those who were privileged and honored to call him friend will treasure the memory of every moment shared with him. Pallbearers to serve will be the Pentecostals of Alexandria's usher board.
