Richard “Dicky” James Peters Jr.
01/30/1962 – 09/16/2020
God sees when the footsteps all falter and when the pathway has grown too steep. Then he touches the weary eyelids and gives his dear ones sleep.
Dicky went to sleep with loved ones at his side after a long battle with MS. In heaven he dwells. He loved fishing, hunting and camping. Dick’s drink of choice was Budweiser and he also enjoyed loud music. He always knew the right song to play and he had a laugh that fills your heart. He was a lover of animals and really enjoyed his dog, Sam. He also loved to draw and enjoyed nature.
He was employed at Fonda and IBM; and also worked and lived on a farm in his younger years.
Dick is survived by his beloved wife, Catherine (Kay) Peters, Steven Moore Jr. and his fiancée, Jenn Holm, Israel Moore and wife, Cynthia, grandchildren, Caleb, Noah and Hailey Moore, Autumn Glover and her husband, Chris and children, Chase and Everett, Andrew Bruley-Moore and his wife Melissa and child Lucas, Richard Peters Sr. and fiancée, Iris Jones. Two special nephews, Jaron and Edan Peters; “special” big sister, Linda Tuttle; brother-in-law, Robert Cusson and his wife, Janet and their children; sisters-in-law, Paulette Brothers and husband, Robert and their family, and Sandra Cusson and her family. He also leaves behind several aunts and uncles.
