Thank you to everyone who has shown our family support through this sad time in our lives. There are too many people to list and i really hope i had the chance to thank each and every person BUT if I missed someone PLEASE forgive me. My dad meant so much to me, i don't think there was a day that went by that I either stopped to say hello, called or went in to see him and mom. Anytime he needed help with something he would call me to come in to help him. I was there the day he died, I was with him and I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. I know in my heart I did everything in my power to help him that day, all my training over the years just took over to guide me.
Dad would have been so proud to see how many people came to say goodbye. On behalf of the Peters family THANK YOU to everyone!!

I love you Dad you will be missed

Polly, Bob, Jeff, Todd and Tina...

Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your families during this difficult time of loss.

Jeff and I will always be reminded of your dad's wood working he did. We are proud to own a beautiful entertainment center that he made us. He definitely made this for us from the bottom of his heart and he wouldn't take anything for the labor he did.

At times like this there are no words to say other than to remember the good times you had with such a kind hearted person.

May you all heal in time... and be there for one another.
