Stephanie Peck says goodbye to newspaper deadlines

by | Dec 11, 2025 | Latest News

This issue of Jewish News is Stephanie Peck’s last as assistant editor. She joined the paper in July 2023 and made the decision several months ago to step away from the hectic world of newspaper deadlines. The paper appreciates that she offered to remain at her desk through the end of the year.

Peck’s contributions to Jewish News will be missed. A team player, she offered plenty of ideas for articles, which she often wrote, and utilized her knowledge of Tidewater’s Jewish community when seeking experts to interview and people to feature for their various Judaica collections, simchas, and traditions.

For much of Peck’s time with Jewish News, she has served as president of the board for Jewish Family Service . . . that’s some mighty fine juggling!

Peck already has several trips planned with her family – husband Paul, daughter, Audrey, and sons Jonathan and Caleb.

The staff of Jewish News (what’s left!) wishes only the best of times for Stephanie and her family and hopes when she receives the paper in her mailbox she doesn’t have flashbacks of deadline days!
