Not sure what to say?

I will always remember Lewis with his gentle ways and easy smile that I knew a long time ago. He is often in my thoughts when I wander to a place in Colorado where he once flew.
To Arlene and the children I offer my deepest sympahty for your loss.

LewPa,
Thank you for teaching me to always use my 2 iron and teaching me words like "smugger." I am glad that you were a part of my life. Say hi to Cynthia for me. I love you and you will be missed greatly.

Lew, It was a privilege to know you for thirty four years. You will be greatly missed. God Bless you.

Petersen Family,
I am so thankful for the memories I was privileged to enjoy with Lew, he was a true sports fan. He will be missed tremendously here on earth, but truly has the gift God gave us eternal life with him. To mom P, Kirk, and all the rest of Lews family you have our deepest sympathy.

I miss and love you Gpa.

Lew was always a delight at the family gatherings at Kirk and Mari's home. He was a true CYCLONE fan to the end, but now I find out that he attended the Univ of Iowa?! How ironic is that? We are all blessed to have had Lew in our life. He will be missed. Lew gets a straight ticket into Heaven! God bless.

Mom P.
I was so sorry to hear the sad news about Dad P. I have many sweet and fond memories of both of you during my time in the Gamma Phi house. We were all so lucky to have had the one and only "house Dad" on sorority row! He was certainly loved. I wish for you to be able to enjoy all the best memories of the lovely life you built and shared. My deepest sympathies to you and your family.
Fondly,
Monica (Kormoczy '93) Cogger

Arlene. I was saddened to hear of Lewis' death and my thoughts are with you and your family. Lewis was a terrific guy and all who knew him will miss him greatly.

Judee, you are in our thoughts and prayers. We stand with you as you and your family celebrate the life and legacy of your dear uncle, Mr. Lewis J. Petersen.


My God continue to bless you.
