Tina Petersen

Tina will be remembered as a devoted and compassionate presence in the lives of those who knew and loved her. She carried herself with steady attentiveness, and her care for others was often expressed in the small, meaningful ways—listening closely, noticing what might otherwise be overlooked, and making sure the needs of those around her were met with thoughtfulness. Known as something of a spitfire, Tina brought a spirited strength to her days, matched by a remarkable eye for the details that others missed. In Mr. P’s classroom, she was cherished as the world’s best teacher’s aide, offering dependable support and a patient, considerate hand that reflected both her diligence and her generosity of heart.

Tina is survived by her children: Randy Petersen (Kelley); Becky Petersen (Bill Hibner); Tony Petersen (Lisa); Shelly Gingold; George Petersen (Leslie); and Geoff Petersen (Sandra). She is also survived by her sister, Ann Remple; her brother, Pete Penner; her brother, Vick Penner; and her sister, Janet Hinman. Tina had 16 grandchildren and 20 great grandchildren.

Tina was preceded in death by her husband, Anthony Petersen; her son, Doug Petersen; her daughter-in-law, Shelli Petersen; her grandson, Doug Petersen; her sister, Marilyn Regier; and her brother, George Penner.

Serving as Pallbearers are Tony Petersen IV, Jacob Gingold, Lucus Gingold, Josh Petersen, Mitchell Petersen, George Petersen Jr. and Honorary Pallbearer Doug Petersen.
