Memorial Service Eulogy by Cynthia Lieberman (daughter) in Loving Memory of
Lillian Delois "Victoria" Peabody (1939-2017)
My mother loved jigsaw puzzles. She loved to organize and piece things together, like quilts, and management systems, people, and stories. And she was a whiz at making useful things out of everyday items.
But first and foremost, she lived life on her own terms, never rolling over to conform to anyone or anything that was expected of her unless it was her choice.
She held the same high standards to others around her, including her friends, her family, employees, and yes of course, even me. At 6’2 in high heels and a chignon hairdo when I was growing up, that was a pretty tall order to fill for anyone.
She carved a long and wide burn mark on this earth as she blazed through life, breaking rules that didn’t even exist and ignoring ones that did but didn’t suit her. In fact, she created and followed her own rules, right down to her last dying day.
Most notably, my mother was a maverick in every sense of the word. She was infamously known in business for breaking ten-decade old glass ceilings with her infectious enthusiasm, and dynamic, relentless approach…AND piercing blue eyes that could melt your heart or cut you like a sharped edge sword in a second if something was amiss.
Loyal and fierce, defender of the underdog and by far a WHOLE LOT OF FUN, her spontaneous spirit pushed many of us to leap out of our comfort zone and into foreign territory before we even knew what hit us.
Whether it was plunging into the deep blue sea or walking on the set of a TV show when you weren’t supposed to, she had a flair for the unexpected and a charm that got her in and out of most situations in ways others never would have dreamt off. She loved nature, loved people, and lived life to the fullest every day.
The court she held with her quilting queens in Simi and Ventura County created bonds that left an everlasting impression on us all. The friendships she gathered there became the center of her universe as she boldly designed where no one had gone before, passionately participated in events and showcases, and ultimately left a legacy of award-winning quilts—signed and dated of course- in our family for generations to come.
As many of you know, she was also incredibly private. I have rarely met most of her personal or professional friends, of which she has had many over the years. She typically glossed over names in her imaginative recollections of dramatic escapades, daring feats and road trips that almost inevitably involved some sort of wild detour. Her grandkids Elizabeth and Jake remember many a trip to Krispy Kreme BEFORE dinner, or to see Phantom of the Opera (at age 7)! Even going to the grocery store was an adventure…and going with her to Joann’s or a fabric store? Forgedda bout it!
Yes for her compartmentalized knowledge was power. Ironically, however, I grew up to become a social media marketer where SHARED knowledge is power. It is from social media in fact, that I found many of you and I am incredibly moved and proud and grateful for the outpouring of love, admiration and support so many of you have shared online and off.
And on that note, I cannot end this tribute without acknowledging her incredibly wicked sense of humor. I’d like to share a joke she told me probably three times over the past six weeks that will surely make you smile.
Once upon a time there was a woman who was well known for her home baked cookies, but whenever people would ask for her recipe she'd say "over my dead body"
So, not wanting to defy one of her dying wishes, they put the recipe on the back of her gravestone when she passed.
My mom was kind. My mom was smart. My mom was important. My mom was loved. And we will all miss her very much. Thank you again for coming.

I keep coming back to this page over and over these last few days - wanting to see Victoria's happy smile and infectious spirit. I will continue to visit and look at photos and memories. I am so sorry she was taken from us way too soon, however she left a lasting impression in our hearts.

Victoria! I didn't know your name was Lillian! And I didn't know you were 3 days older than me! Why didn't I take the time to know you better. I just will always remember your loving smile and hugs! Judy

I had the pleasure of meeting Victoria several years back and was amazed her 'organic' spirit. Victoria exuded joy; which in her presence was contagious. I also loved that she loved our Black and White cookies. Families have matriarchs that improve not only the lives of her family, but the families around her family. Victoria was and will always be a matriarch. One look no further than Cynthia to understand familial love, and support. Victoria isn't really gone, she is just here in a different form; and without pain or discomfort.
Victoria you did touch my life and I am most definitely happy our lives crossed.
May you always rest in peace.
Gary

Although I did not know her personally, she was a friend to all her fellow quilters in the SVQG. I will remember her as having the most beautiful smile which you saw upon first walking into our guild's monthly meetings. Her smile, her laughter, her friendliness - she will be missed by all.

I will miss your crazy, lighthearted phonecalls, our lunches together at Luna, walks on the beach at the retreat and your unbounded determination to "get 'r done".
"Don't ask, don't get" was my nickname for you because when you wanted something you just stepped up and went for it. Why not? All they could say was "No".
I learned a lot from you, my "forever friend". I will miss you every day of my life.
