David Peterson

David Alan Peterson

Dave passed away at home in Grand Junction, Colorado on March 5, 2022.

Dave was born on September 19, 1954 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.  As a young man growing up, Dave took many camping trips with his family on the shores of Lake Superior in northern Minnesota and also across the western United States.  He loved Lake Superior but eventually the mountains and the West captured his heart and he moved to Grand Junction as a young adult.  He was a skilled skier, experienced hiker, enjoyed cooking and his quick, dry sense of humor was always appreciated.

Dave is preceded in death by his parents Donald and Florence Peterson.

He is survived by loving sister Cheryl Evenson (Brian), nieces Lindsey Ryan, Kelly VanTatenhove (Kyle) and great nephew Noah.
Davel leaves behind his loyal feline companions, Karo and Kachina.

He is also survived by good friends Mark and Bev Olson who did so much for him in his later years.

Dave, we will always carry fond memories of you in our hearts.  We loved you so much.

The family will hold a private remembrance at a later date.
