Carol Huesman wrote a sympathy message

“Dear Patty, I am sorry to hear that your dad has passed away. It was very interesting for me to read his life story. You must have amazing memories growing up in a "close knit" family, your mother water skiing at age 84 ( I wasn't able to do it at age 24!), your parents loving each other for 72 years! My deepest sympathy to you and your family and may God Bless the memory of Benny Peterson. With Love, Carol Huesman”
