This is sad to hear and sorry I heard too late to attend the services. I worked with Milt for many years at Rockwell, and always appreciated his sense of humor and his willingness to help fellow workers. Dick Graham, Tom Delcourt, Bob Slane and I always considered him a good friend and a very capable person. My condolances to Milt's family.

My condolences to the Peterson family. In the Rockwell days he was always helpful and really one of the characters I’ll really remember from those days. Always working on that Dodge Challenger and the Pickup.

We have lost a good friend, co-worker and all around helpful individual.
He never ceased to amaze me with all his pruning knowledge and the times he helped me with mine.
