of Hot Springs, AR

April 8, 1971 - June 6, 2025

Vallie Jo (Peake) Wilkerson, 54, of Hot Springs, Arkansas passed away on Friday June 6, 2025 surrounded by the love of her family. She was born and raised in Hot Springs. Vallie was a bright and driven student, graduating as valedictorian of Lakeside High School in 1989. Her academic excellence and beautiful voice earned her scholarships to Nation Park College and Henderson State University, where she received her teaching degree before continuing to pursue a law degree at William H. Bowen School of Law. A brilliant attorney, Val combined intellect and heart in everything she did.

Those who knew Val will remember her as a real-life Elle Woods - sharp, stylish and spirited. With her pink flare and bubbly blonde energy, she brought light and laughter to every room she entered. Val had a passion for life's simple joys: weekend yard sales, a good scary movie, scrapbooking, cooking for the people she loved and enjoying her favorite Taco Pronto meal. But more than anything, she loved spending time with her family and friends. She was a loving mother, devoted daughter, loyal sister, adoring ''Gigi'' and beloved friend.

She is survived by her dad, Glen Peake; her three children, Nick (Morgan) Wilkerson, Jessica (Tucker) Moix, Josh (Maria) Wilkerson and four cherished grandchildren, Blakely and Tatum Moix, Timber and Ridge Wilkerson. She also leaves behind her sisters, Kimberly (Bob) Pymn, Kristi (Michael) Blades, Courtney Peake, Glenda and honorary sister/best friend, Marika Pickens Neeve, her loyal fur baby Rowdy and a host of nieces, nephews, family and friends.

Val was preceded in death by her mom, Judy Peake. We find peace knowing she was the first to meet her at Heaven's Gates.

A Celebration of her life will be held on Wednesday, June 11, 2025 at 2:00PM with a Visitation one hour prior. Burial will be private.

Though our hearts are heavy with loss, we are also full of gratitude for your love and legacy we will carry with us in every story we tell, every goal we chase and every memory we hold dear.

In her spirit, wear a pop of pink and share a story that makes you smile.
