Gary L. Petersen

Jim & I both worked and socialized with Gary in Milwaukee but our best times were here in Florida with him and Rod. We got together at least once a winter. . .Selby Gardens, restaurants, Ana Maria Island, the riverwalk in Bradenton, St. Augustine, and visits to each others' homes. Here we are on Sarasota Bay enjoying a gourmet picnic Rod pulled together in March 2004!

Gary had a fresh mind and a creative spirit. He was a dedicated friend, son and brother and was a passionate supporter of Milwaukee, lending his talents to a broad range of community, arts, and political efforts in his hometown.

Thank you for your friendship, Gary, and thank you, Rod, for being a strong partner to my friend for more than three decades.
