"Ray and I want to offer our condolences to the entire Peterson family. You were blessed to have a mother that never gave up even though she faced hardships with raising 5 kids by herself. We have the comfort that this is not the end. We will see her again when cross over to the other side. We just imagine Jesus waiting for you mom with our stretched arms saying"Well done good and faithful servant." We are sending a charitable donation to Calvary Baptist in memory of your mother. You are in our thought and prayers. With our love, Ray and Mary Kate Scheidler"
