Peter McArdle Obituary

Peter McArdle

Long time Humboldt area resident, Peter McArdle, passed away on October 27th 2022. Born in Los Angeles in 1949, Peter came to the North Coast area in the 70's to study at Humboldt State and decided to make the area his home. He worked for the Postal Service for 22 years before retiring in 2011. A master craftsman, Peter enjoyed remodeling his McKinleyville home and maintaining his immaculately landscaped yard. He enjoyed daily walks on Moonstone Beach with his beloved dog, Sheila, and cherished his time with his extended family and friends. Peter will be sorely missed by all. Along with siblings Chris, Pati and Joe, he is survived by son, Ryan McArdle, daughter-in-law Wachiraphon "Tik" McArdle and granddaughter, Kendra McArdle.
A 'celebration of life' will take place locally around the end of June/beginning of July, 2023.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. I sure miss Peter, every time I open up Facebook, I would look forward to his comments on politics. Also what improvements he has done to his house & yard? He was a great person, he will be missed!

My condolences to the family on the passing of Peter. I never got to talk to him at the 50-Year reunion but had hoped to visit this year on the way to Washington. I'm glad I had a chance to see him a couple of times while he was in Santa Rosa.
