Amanda Peterson Obituary

AMANDA PETERSON

FINDLAY — Amanda Jeanne "Mindy" Peterson, passed away Sunday afternoon, June 7, 2015.

She is survived by her husband, Dr. Andrew A. Peterson, and her five beautiful children: Zachary, Rachel, Rebekah, Renee, and Ruby.

She is also survived by her parents, Bill and Jeanne Lee of Findlay and two sisters, Angela and Jennifer, both of Houston.

Mindy was a dedicated and devoted mother. Her love for her children will be an eternal legacy. She was active in church, the local home school group and American Heritage Girls. She gave herself to all that she did and touched more lives than can be imagined. She was a 1997 graduate of Findlay High School, a 2001 graduate of Indiana Wesleyan University and a 2003 graduate of Marygrove College where she received her masters degree in education.

Mindy will be missed deeply by her husband and her children. It is hard to understand why she was taken from us in the prime of her life, but we know that God has a reason and His purpose is divine. Andy and his family ask for your prayers as they navigate this difficult time.

Visitation will be held at COLDREN-CRATES FUNERAL HOME Thursday, June 11, 2015 from 2:00-8:00 p.m.

A funeral service will be held at Gateway Evangelical Church Friday, June 12, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. Burial will follow in Maple Grove Cemetery, Findlay.
