Alice F. Petersen's Obituary
Alice F. (Reed) Petersen was born May 31, 1955 in Shenandoah, Iowa the daughter of Harlan Eugene and Anita Charlene (McLaughlin) Reed. She passed away on Thursday, July 9, 2015 at Methodist Hospital in Omaha, Nebraska at the age of 60 years, 1 month and 9 days.
Alice grew up in Shenandoah, and graduated from Shenandoah High School in 1973. On December 10, 1991 she was united in marriage to John Eric Petersen in Red Oak, Iowa. This union was blessed with one child, Troy Eugene Petersen.
Alice worked at Eatons after graduation until she became disabled in 1997. She was a member of the Ladies Auxiliary of the Fraternal Order of the Eagles. She had an intense love for fast cars, fishing and an extreme loyalty to friends. She enjoyed time chatting with family and friends, picking apples and asparagus; and thought the most beautiful days were cloudy days. She inherited the art of writing entertaining letters from Aunt Mabel, and we loved to receive these works of art from her!
She was preceded in death by her parents, Gene and Charlene Reed; grandparents Floyd and Grace Reed, Charles and Mary Evelyn McLaughlin, as well as Aunts Mabel and Phyllis.
Survivors include her husband John Petersen of Shenandoah, Iowa, her son Troy Petersen of Shenandoah, Iowa, her brother Jack Reed and his wife Kate of Altoona, Iowa, niece, Amy Jo Liles (Charlie) of Shenandoah, Iowa, nephews, Chris Reed (Melissa) of Shenandoah, Iowa, Justin Reed (Brian Livermore) of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, B. Patrick Hoburg (Callie) of West Lafayette, IN, Michael Hoburg of Chicago, IL., four great nephews, In-Laws, Robert and Paula Petersen, former sister-in-law Kathy Jandrew of Shenandoah, Iowa, along with many other relatives and friends.
Alice received dialysis for eighteen years (got to be a record), and we have great thanks and appreciation for all in the medical community that cared for her over the years, as well as a special thank you to her personal care givers.
In lieu of flowers, the family would like memorials to be directed to P.A.W.S. or The Kidney Foundation.
