PETERSON, Arvid

July 6, 1929 - April 28, 2015


Arvid passed away peacefully at Evergreen Baptist Care Home in White Rock, BC with his family by his side. He was born in Odense, Denmark and came to Canada in 1948. He then married in 1951. He spent some time in construction and then in forestry as a faller, finally running a small ranch raising cattle. He was always active and full of energy. Arvid was predeceased by parents Morton Ove and Marie Kristine; brother Preben and wife Olive. He is survived by sons Arvid (Karen), Chris (Tracy), Grant (Shiva) and daughters Joan (Bill), Lori (Brent) and spouse Donna; 18 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren. Thank you to the caregiving staff at Evergreen D2 for making him comfortable in his last days. There will be no service at his request. Celebration of Life later in spring/summer. If you wish, donations to Alzheimer Society of Canada would be greatly appreciated.

We love and miss you Far Far!
