In Loving Memory of Peter Olaf Flom
It is with deep sorrow and great love that we announce the passing of Pete, a devoted husband, loving father, adoring grandfather, favorite uncle, and faithful servant of God, who left this world peacefully on May 15, 2025, at the age of 79 years.
Born on December 2, 1945,
Pete was a man of great strength, unwavering humility, and boundless generosity. He spent over 50 years working with pride and dedication at Westside Volkswagen, where he was not only a loyal employee but also a cherished friend and mentor to many. His work ethic and integrity were unmatched, and he became a fixture in the community through both his professional and personal life.
He was a loving father and grandfather, and the beloved husband of Nancy, with whom he shared 55 beautiful years of marriage-a love story rooted in faith, respect, and enduring companionship. Together, they raised three daughters who were the light of his life. He was a gentle, guiding presence in their lives, always offering love, wisdom, and unwavering support.
A devout Catholic, Pete found strength and purpose in his faith. He was deeply committed to the church and lived out the teachings of Christ in all he did. He never spoke ill of anyone and treated every person with kindness and compassion. To know him was to know true goodness-he would give the shirt off his back without a second thought.
Whether it was lending a hand to a neighbor, sharing a quiet moment of prayer, or simply offering a warm smile, Pete left a legacy of love, humility, and generosity. He was a joyful storyteller who also had an enduring mischievous, playful side. His life was a testament to the power of faith and the beauty of a selfless heart.
Preceded in death by his parents, Agnes Sandmeyer (Doerfler), Herbert Flom, and granddaughter Ruby Streefland.
He is survived by his wife Nancy (Hoiosen), his three daughters Tina (Jess) Streefland, Angela (Brad) Lutz, Maria Flom (Josh Willcoxen ), five grandchildren, Luke, Zack, Cole Streefland, Olivia Lutz, Kinley Desubijana, and a wide circle of family, friends, and community members who were touched by his life.
