Condolence From: Mike Condrey
Condolence: It is not often one gets to call a teacher a friend; I was fortunate to have that relationship with Mr. Peterson. I took his class all 4 years of high school & I still have stuff I made in there. I loved to watch what he could do with metal! " What are you making Mr.Peterson?" "It's a hummingbird cage. " "it's big for a hummingbird cage isn't it?" "It's for the large Texas variety!" That was his standard response whenever we asked what he was making. I can still hear him say that. I want the family to know you are in my thoughts & prayers & to know your Dad had a big impact on me. I was truly blessed to have known him. Sincerely, Mike C.
