Gregory Micheal "Pete"

Hamby, Sr.

Gregory Micheal “Pete” Hamby, Sr., 70, of Dibble, passed away Thursday, April 9, 2026, at his home. Pete Hamby was born in a dirt floor house on May 8, 1955, in Moyers Oklahoma. He was raised by Thomas and Mary Hamby in the Moyers area before finally moving to Oklahoma City, where he met the love of his life, Lesa Kercheval. Together they raised 3 children, Greg, Suzannah and Leon. Eventually they landed in Dibble, Oklahoma where Pete coached little league and helped people with mechanical problems. He could drive a truck, turn a wrench, and never turned a deaf ear to someone in need. If you knew Pete, then you have heard the truth more than once. Raised by parents that survived the Depression he was a man who chopped nonsense and confronted problems swiftly. Rumor has it he is listed as The GOAT in the mule barn! Obviously not the only one, but Pete Hamby did it his way.

Pete enjoyed time with his Grandkids: Seth, Ashli, Hunter, Alex and Archer, and his Great Grandkids: Skyla, Adrian, Anara, Keegan, Karter, Vika and Renlee. He was famous among them for always having candy & popsicles. When he was with them, you saw the inner child of Pete. When he got around kids, Willy Wonka & Robin Williams inspired his actions. That old hard heart desired the fuel from laughter and smiles more than anything!

Pete was preceded in death by both parents, and brothers, Marty & Steve. He is survived by one sister, Rosemary and the rest of the outlaws listed above. The time with him will be forever treasured and he will be forever missed. His legacy is a character of honesty and hard work.

Love ya’ Pete!
