Pete was born in Price, Utah on March 12, 1936 to Eveline Jane and Brigham Harmon. He was the oldest son of four siblings and honed his leadership skills in the manner of big brothers everywhere. He joined the Navy after completing high school, never dreaming that this career choice would truly take him around the world. He served his country honorably for 20 years and then used the skills developed in service of his country to create a unique job niche, which he filled expertly until his final "final" retirement in 2001. After retiring he developed a passion and talent for cooking; primarily developing recipes that featured the use of his favorite hot peppers. He served on the executive committee at the American Legion Post 300 where he enjoyed the company of friends and proved that he never in his life met a stranger. He loved traveling, he worked hard, and he played fair.
He was preceded in death by his parents Jennie and Brig; his oldest sister Barbara; and his younger brother Mike. He is survived by his beautiful bride of over 50 years, Annie Lavone Rock Harmon; two daughters, Cena Michelle Harmon Ron Logdahl and Barbara Ann Harmon-Cowherd Kevin; and four grandchildren, Emma Lisette Logdahl, Calvin Rhys Cowherd, Aidan Bryce Cowherd and Zoe Bryn Cowherd. He also leaves his faithful companion, Peanut, devoid of a warm lap in which to cuddle.
Pete left this world on April 15, 2007 surrounded by his family; but his passing will leave a gap in all of the places where his bright smile and twinkling eyes are expected. His combination of charm, generosity and loyalty made him the truest and best man that he could be; but it was his sense of humor that set the hook. His last joke for us all was that in his passing he made true the adage that "nothing is certain but death and taxes.'
