Your gentle, caring, compassionate, scholarly spiritual teachings; and, being a 'skilled master teacher & performer of African Drumming', will live on through those you taught and shared with throughout the community. The grief from your earthly death is lessened in knowing that God has now given you eternal peace among our ancestors. Your life and contributions will be remembered. "Thank you"

One of the most knowledgeable men when it came to the word of God. In the presence of the Christ that he preached about.

Rest easy Dr. Peterson. I remember you taught me how to play the drums at ReachBack. Great man, I´m blessed we crossed paths. I´ll miss seeing you and talking at Jefferson express.
