Peter Seale

Peter Seale, 71, of Longmont, CO was born in Seattle, WA to Roy and Shirley Seale on April 5, 1945 and was baptized on March 21, 1948. He ended his baptismal journey and went to be with his Lord on March 23, 2017. Pete grew up in Mountlake Terrace, Washington and graduated from Mountlake Terrace High School in 1963. He went on to serve proudly in the U.S. Navy from 1966 to 1970. He met his wife Sandy Smith, while serving with the Navy in Honolulu, Hawaii. They were married in 1969, and after his discharge they made their home in Colorado. He graduated from the University of Colorado with a Bachelor’s Degree in Human Resources in 1976.

Pete started his career with Ball Corporation, Westminster, CO in September, 1978, and retired from Ball in 2010 as Director, Corporate Human Resources. After retirement, Pete and Sandy moved to Longmont.

Pete was an active member of Faith Community Lutheran Church where he served on many committees and enjoyed various weekly Men’s Bible Studies. He served the community in many volunteer capacities, including the OUR Center; HOPE (providing monthly dinners to the homeless); Outreach Ministry providing meals to the homeless in Denver; serving on the Board of Directors for Shekinah Christian Ministries (prison ministry); Sunday School teacher; serving as a mentor at Sanborn Elementary School in Longmont for Kids Hope, USA; volunteering at Longmont United Hospital; and volunteering time to Boulder County Work Force.

Pete’s greatest joy in life was spending time with family, enjoying the grandkids, and being involved in community.

Pete was preceded in death by his parents, Roy and Shirley Seale. He is survived by his wife Sandy; son, Dr. Jeff Seale and wife Jamie and their children Darren, Avery, Jacob, Lilli and Reaghan of Vancouver, WA; and daughter Cathi Brents and husband Matt and their children Ariana and Addison of Longmont, CO. He is also survived by his step-mother Mimi Seale of Shoreline, Washington.

A Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, April 18, 2017 at Faith Community Lutheran Church, Longmont, with a reception immediately follow at the church.

In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts may be made in Pete’s name to the Longmont Humane Society. It was through that organization that precious Zoey, our little fur baby, came to be an important member of the Seale family.

Pete’s final request is that you please find someone in need and spend time with them sharing your love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness and hope. Through God’s grace you will be doing what pleases God – loving God and your neighbor.
