Sandra Peterson Obituary

Sandra Peterson, born September 28, 1938, daughter of Gwendolyn L. and Richard D. Moeller, died peacefully at home on October 6, 2022. She was the devoted wife of John O.

She was the loving sister of Charlotte Vaughan, Pamela Copeland, and Richard D. Moeller, Jr. (deceased), and the dear aunt of five nephews and a niece. Sandra was a strong competitive tennis player, a faithful friend, and a generous volunteer. She will be remembered for her love and care of her gardens, the birds, her home, and for her beautiful smile. A service will be held at a later date.

So sad to learn of Sandy's death. She and Jack have been long-time friends of mine and my late husband John's.
We partied with Barbara and Dick Washburn for years and I kept in touch with Sandy until recently when I guess she was ailing. Jack and Sandy often visited us in New York City and before that, at Candlewood Lake in CT, when we lived there. I will miss her. Condolences to all the family. Lynn Birch
