Arthur Peterson Obituary

Memories have been pouring out between the two of us for several days. Pete and Ann are another set of parents, mentors, loving friends. Though we have had miles between us our thoughts and prayers remain with Ann, Cheryl, Larry, Jim, Debbie, Karen and the extended family. No doubt Joe, Angie and Pete are already in the midst of a good cards game. Love to all.

Dear Aunt Ann and Family, My wife Connie and I extend our condolences to you and your family on the passing of Uncle Art. I can remember driving Uncle Art to Philadelphia International Airport many times as well as picking him up. I do believe that Uncle Art was not too comfortable with my driving at that time. He sat really still and upright. Well, the bottom line is that he arrived there safe and sound. I also remember how Uncle Art would shave with an electric razor in our kitchen when he stayed at our house. When there, he would always make it a point to visit Aunt Ann's family ( The Browns ) and always see Lou and Bert Venditti. I have many fond memories of Uncle Art and our prayers are with him and your family.

Mrs. Peterson, Debbie, Shelly and all of the family, My deepest condolences and sympathy. Mr. Peterson was a guiding light with his warmth, caring and loving heart. It was part of why I joined the church. May your hearts lighten and may your thoughts be warm of Mr. Peterson. He was a good man and I was blessed to know him. Debbie, may your heart mend and may your spirits lift up with God. You are a good daughter and I am so happy I know you and your family. Although miles away know my thoughts and prayers are yours.

May God bless and keep you all.

Dear Aunt Ann and Family,



Carolyn and I extend our sympathy to you and family and shall keep you all in our prayers.



I will always remember and enjoy my childhood memories of Uncle Art and your family visiting our house in Malvern during your vacations and between his assignments with the goverment.I always looked forward to them.



As my brother Bob said, Uncle Art was the last of his generation in the Peterson Family with Uncle Art's brothers Charles(died in combat), Thomas , Joe and my dad William(Reds)passing on before him.



The Peterson boys were also part of the "Greatest Generation" as Tom Brokaw stated in his book.With Uncle Tom,my dad William,Uncle Art and Uncle Charlie fighting in the war and with Uncle Joe supporting the war effort at home being a dairy farmer ,these men did their utmost to defend and support America's freedom.



As Tom Brokow said ,it is the greatest generation any society has ever produced.



Thank you Uncle Art.
