Ron Petersen

Father and a very special

friend to so many. Ron

grew up at Rice Lake, liv-

ing in the serenity of the

outdoors. He loved fishing

and hunting and spending

time with family and

friends.

In his adult years Ron

acquired excellent carpen-

try skills and worked hard

every day. Ron is a proud

father of two beautiful

children, Zach 25 and

Courtney 19.

Ron was a very compas-sionate father to his chil-

dren. He was loved by all

who were put in his path.

We have all been blessed

to have had time to feel

the love of his heart.

gratitude.
