The Family of Georgina Peterson


We are thankful for the prayers, thoughtful cards, memorials, phone calls, food, beautiful flower arrangements, hugs and sharing that have been wrapped around us by family, friends and community at this time.  A special thank you to Pastor Bell for his caring ministry to Mother as well as the uplifting funeral service.  Thank you to David Post and Carl Cronquist for sharing their gift of music at the service and to the women of St. John’s who served the delicious lunch afterward.  We appreciate all who attended the wake and who braved the snowstorm to attend the funeral.

We thank the doctors, nurses and staff at Dr. Ippel’s office and at St. Joseph’s Hospital for their care and respectful treatment of her.  Thanks, too, to the hospice and palliative care teams, especially Cindy and Diane, for their loving care, and to Jill and Betty for being friends, not just caregivers.  They all helped Mother fulfill her wish to remain in her home of 50 years.

Thank you to the Leiser Funeral Home for their attentive assistance with services.

A card we received said, “The only feeling stronger than loss is love.”  We miss Mother/Grandmother/Great-Grandmother, but we know she is safely in the arms of her Savior and at peace.  Her love for her family remains strong in our hearts.

Emery Peterson, Pat Fredrickson, Stu Peterson, Kim Peterson and families
