Amanda Kate Peters

Born in Red Bank, New Jersey, Amanda was a lifelong resident of Henderson, Nevada. She was a 2005 graduate of Coronado High School, and attended Arizona State University, where she received a bachelor’s degree in 2009 from the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication.

Amanda was active with public relations and marketing professional organizations in the Las Vegas area, and a mentor for an organization that she loved, Best Buddies of Nevada. Her proudest work was the time she spent with the Las Vegas Convention and Visitor’s Authority, where she spent her time evangelizing for the city she loved so much. During that time, she was able to travel the world and make more lasting and meaningful friendships than most people make in a lifetime.

Amanda will be remembered for her kind and caring personality, her sense of humor, and her beautiful smile, which lit up every room she entered. She was an amazingly selfless, and giving person, who can never be replaced. The world was truly a better place during the short time that Amanda was part of it.

She is survived by her husband, Brandon Peters, her mother, Denise (Dorn) Arentsen, her uncle Russ Dorn, aunt Lynn (Dorn) Stangeland, and more heartbroken friends and family members than can be counted.

Services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, March 12, 2022, at St. Viator Catholic Community Church, at 2461 E. Flamingo Rd., Las Vegas, NV. In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to Best Buddies of Nevada or Opportunity Village.
