Peterson, Glen B. (13 DEC 1927 - 18 MAR 2018)

Glen B. Peterson, 90, of Marshfield, passed away surrounded by his family on Sunday, March 18, 2018 at Wells Nature View in Marshfield under the care of Ministry Home Health Hospice.

His memorial service will be held at 11AM on Saturday, March 24, 2018 at Immanuel United Methodist Church in Chili. Sally Rendell will be the officiant. A private committal service will take place at a later date. Family and friends are invited to gather on Saturday at the church from 9AM until the time of services. Serving as honorary pallbearers are his grandchildren.

Glen was born on December 13, 1927 in Marshfield, the son of Glen and Ottillie (Barth) Peterson, Sr. He was united in marriage to Delores Rank on July 28, 1949 in Dubuque, IA. Together Glen and Delores farmed in Nasonville until his son and daughter-in-law David and Cindy purchased the farm in 1990. Glen never really retired from farming and continued to help as long as he was able. Glen was a hard worker and took great pride in his farming operation. His two grandsons being third generation farmers are learning the ropes and will continue the Peterson farming legacy.

He was a member of Immanuel United Methodist Church in Chili. Glen held various positions in the church throughout the years. He was a volunteer fireman for the Town of Lincoln Fire Department and a board member for the Town of Lincoln Zoning Committee for many years. His hobbies included bowling, playing cards, fishing, and most off all spending time with his family and babysitting the grandchildren.

Glen is survived by his wife of 68 years, Delores of Marshfield; his children Kathy (Alan) Bauman of Spencer, Sandy (Dale) Meissner of Chili; David (Cindy) Peterson of Marshfield; his grandchildren: Scott (Sheri) Bauman, Jeremy (Jen) Bauman, Dustin (Kim) Meissner, Dana Meissner, Dawn Meissner, Derek (Katie) Meissner, Amber (Jordan) Wolf, Michael (Karla) Peterson, Trevor (Mary) Peterson, Brittany (Luke) Peterson and Tyler Peterson and his great-grandchildren: Hayden, Ava, Mia, Mason, Madden, Tenley, Roe, Brady and Connor; along with many other relatives and friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents Glen Sr. and Ottillie; his sisters and brothers-in-law: Vivian (Earl) Dix, Laverna (Donald) Gardner and Leah (Victor) Seehafer and his great-granddaughter Emma Mae Meissner.

His family would like to thank Patty and the staff at Wells Nature View Building Number 3 and Ministry Home Health Hospice for the excellent care shown to Glen.

His arrangements are under the care of Life Tributes Funeral Home–Spencer.
