Peck, who disappeared in the early morning hours of Dec. 24, 2010, lived in West Seattle from the age of 10.
His body was found on a beach on Bainbridge Island on the morning of Jan. 19. A determination of the cause of his death is expected to be announced in the next few weeks.
Some of his friends shared their memories of him on the Facebook page set up initially to find him but that now serves as an information gathering point.
"We met on the basketball court when we were about 11. I remember the first few practices me and Matt Graham and some of the other guys were fouling the crap out of Jeremy and running into him on purpose. He was the new kid...haha and his Uncle John was the coach. "
