Not sure what to say?

Offering my deepest condolences to the Peterson family. I have wonderful memories of when Aunt Bess would come to Michigan and stay with Brian and I. She always took us to see a great movie, and we shared many laughs and good times. But what I will never forget is how she was always there for us during Brian’s illness, sending prayers, love and encouragement almost weekly. I will miss her phone calls. May her memory be eternal, and may she rest in peace.

So sorry rest in peace

Bess is one of the nicest person. May God be with her on this trip.

We knew Bess at Holy Apostles Church & wish to express our deepest sympathy to her family.
May her memory be eternal.
Sincerely,
Sophia Simios & Penelope Egerter

Mike and Bess's generosity and friendship has a lasting impact on my life. When I moved to the Chicago area from California they welcomed me like I was family. Gracious, full-of life, and always supportive. Their friendship and support during this time was a true blessing. Those who touch our lives, stay in our hearts forever.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
