Deborah Peterson Obituary

Deborah Ann Peterson
1949 ~ 2018
This story and love affair all started 28 years ago from a WEC/OEC Brighton ski patrol medical course.
Debbie was a 5' 4" blonde whirl wind of energy and involved with her boys, step sons, grandchildren, family and friends.
She loved anything that was related to the outdoors, water skiing, snow skiing with the Brighton ski patrol, hiking, mountain bike riding. Flaming Gorge reservoir was a real hit when she could be on her boat drifting along or out chatting with the other boaters on the dock.
Animals could not have had a better companion or advocate. She would comment that she might enjoy her time with her hairy daughters - two German shepherds (Lady Rose or Sarah Rose) more than her time with Andy, a real toss-up.
The one thing she loved to do more down the road was cook. She loved to be in the kitchen trying all sorts of new techniques, recipes and products. Everyone had to go home with a "Debbie container" samples or leftovers. The good lord is going to receive an Angel well skilled in cooking and can feed the masses in heaven.
A special thank you to the Huntsman Cancer Hospital / Institute for the many years of support and caring practices.
Debbie is survived by her husband Andy, sons James and Scott Reed, her adopted daughter (Scott's wife) Deya, step sons Jason, Eric, Cory Peterson, grandchildren Devyn, Cody Reed, Hannah Sholseth , Ashly, Cole and Riley Peterson, great grandson Hayden Reed, Siblings Janel Ericson, Melisa Napier, David Monday.
Debbie is proceeded in death by her parents James and Jerry
Debbie will be cremated and her ashes interned in a private family gathering. There will be a celebration of life later. In leu of flowers please donate to the Huntsman Cancer Hospital / Institute

First I would like to say that there is not enough room here for me to Express the things I loved about my mother and what a great great person she really was not just to her family but to anybody she thought might need some cheering up ect. If I can be half the person you were mother and even have half the heart you did then I will be just fine on this earth. I have had a little time to think about the things you have instilled in me over all these years too many to list, the one I always will remember is to be kind to others and if you dont have anything nice to say dont say it at all, oh and yes mom you were always right he he! Sincerely your son Scott Reed with love for eternity! ❤ PS I want to thank my father Andy Peterson for taking care of my mother through such difficult times thanks again!
