Obituary - Wayne Allen Peterson

Our dad, father-in-law, grandpa and brother left this world the morning of Aug. 19,  in a hospital in Granada, Nicaragua, due to pneumonia.

He was born Nov. 30, 1944, in St. Paul, Minnesota, the son of Einar and Edith Peterson. He also lived in South Dakota. In 1950 his family moved to Havre, Montana, where he graduated high school and started a family. He moved his family to Great Falls and eventually settled in Billings where he worked for Meadow Gold Dairies. He retired in 2004 and travelled in Washington, Oregon, California, Alaska and Mexico. He discovered Nicaragua and chose to spend his last years there.

He is survived by his daughter, Tammie (Darrin) Tutino of Billings; son, Todd (Sara) Peterson of Lewistown; and Chad Peterson of Billings; brother, Darrell (Nancy) Peterson of Olds, Alberta, Canada; brother, Arlen Peterson of Cut Bank; sister, Ardyth (Rick) Loewen of Longview, Washington; two granddaughters, Kylee and Bree Peterson; and several nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents; and brother, Leslie Peterson.

We invite family and friends to a celebration of life at 2 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 20, at Clocktower Inn Garden Terrace Conference Room, in downtown Billings.
