Hi Sheena:

A belated welcome to RootsChat.

Looking at his headstone, I don't see a reference to Nita.  Perhaps I am not looking at the correct headstone; or, have you seen the back of the stone - perhaps the name is on the back?   :-\

If Mr. Peterson had a spouse, she may not have passed away yet, as there appears to be no reference to another person buried in his plot.

  (Note:  If you type "Peterson" and click on "Go", there are only three results for this cemetery.)
Of course, she could have been buried elsewhere.

Hi Lisa and thank you for the welcome 😊 from the picture I can see it says his name and military and then says " ****will always love you, the backbone of the family" never thought that she may be still alive! As was thinking him being 94 was a good old age! Lol
Can you see a marriage anywhere or is it just me? With thanks Sheena

Hi Sheena:

Your eyes are much better than mine!   ;)  After enlarging the photo, I certainly can see the name.  I saw words at the bottom, but originally thought it said "We will..."   So much for assuming something, eh?

I will have a look around; perhaps we can find a reference to her.  (She may be a daughter?)  Since she may still be alive, it would be a good idea to remove her name from previous post(s), as we are not supposed to post anything about living people.   ;)

If you're looking to contact his relatives directly, it's a recent enough death that maybe the funeral home would have the information as to the next of kin or might be willing to pass on a message for you.
