Pete will be remembered for his love of
cooking, smoking meats and great Thanksgiving dinners. He always
wanted others to enjoy his cooking. He had a passion for training his
dogs and watching Kansas City Chiefs football games. Pete always took
great pride in his work and abilities when working with concrete.
Pete?s abilities to tell jokes and
make others laugh will be greatly missed.

October.

may be made to Good Shepherd Hospice, in care of Petersen funeral
home, or flower arrangements may be sent to his home.
