Dale Peters Obituary

Visit the Kepple-Graft Funeral Home website to view the full obituary.

Dale H. Peters, 89, a lifelong resident of Greensburg, passed away October 6, 2025 at Latrobe Hospital. Dale was born on July 22, 1936 in Greensburg, a son of Howard Peters Sr. and Grace (Huff) Peters. He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Howard Peters, Jr.; and sister, Jean Peters. He is survived by his loving wife of almost 66 years, Shirley (Solida) Peters; children, David (Christina) Peters and Sherry (Kevin) Johnston; three grandchildren, David (Beckie) Johnston, Sarah (Brian) Ridilla, and Emma Peters; and four great-grandchildren, Brian and Blair Ridilla and Sydney and Wyatt Johnston; sisters, Carol Evans and Arlene Thompson; and a number of nieces and nephews. Dale served in the army from 1959 to 1962. He was a farmer through and through. He was most content when riding his tractors in the fields. Dale was a jack of all trades. There was not any piece of equipment he could not repair. Relaxation was sitting on his porch swing with a cup of coffee or tea, and eating a Little Debbie chocolate cake. He was a loving husband, dad, and pappy. Family and friends will be received on Thursday, October 9th from 5pm until the time of service at 7pm at the KEPPLE-GRAFT Funeral Home 524 N. Main Street, Greensburg, PA 15601. Private interment will be in Westmoreland County Memorial Park. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the Saint John’s Harrold Reformed United Church of Christ, 103 St Johns Church Road, Greensburg, PA 15601. For online condolences and information, please visit www.kepplegraft.com.
