Dee Dee and Leon were two remarkable people. They, as well as the entire family will hold dear to my heart forever. I spent more time on the phone with Dee Dee, Grams and Kris than my own blood family. Winter nights sitting under the dryers to keep warm, Leon and Danny taking me out on the pontoon fishing, Danny/Ped dancing to "Foot Loose" out in the driveway and Leon with his sanka coffee and creamer along with Grams, Bud and Dee Dee joined in. The years of Dee Dee and Leon grocery shopping at Madsens early on Sunday mornings to take me out to Judson to spend the weekends. Shampooing some of her customers in the shop was an honor. Nobody could cook like DeeDee! Borrowing the 1970 (?) Ford Pinto Pony to bring John home from Tech School when he was enlisted in the Air Force and breaking down in a drive thru of Burger King in Rantoul IL. Another time, hit a patch of ice on Courtland Bridge with DeeDee in the car on our way to visit Danny in Hutchinson. God's Angels guided us with no injuries to ourselves or to Kris's car, so we continued on our journey. Dee Dee encouraged me to pick up my knitting needles and taught me more techniques. DeeDee and Leon put others needs before their own, and tirelessly making sure family was taken care of. They lived unselfish and served others' needs before themselves. DeeDee was so maternal, encouraging and had more confidence in me than I did in myself. Intense faith and spiritual knowledge with the heart for Jesus. These are blessings and gifts so precious. I am honored and blessed to have called them my family once upon a time, and couldn't have prayed for any better grandparents for my son Jarred, than these two! Ive never known two people who were so rich in love! I'm filled with endearing and precious memories that I will carry in my heart, always. God's blessings of comfort to Kris and John, Agneiska, Rick, Bryan, Nathaniel, Eric, and my son Jarred. Ma & Pa Peittersen will be truly and deeply missed by so many. However, can you imagine the beautiful reunion in Heaven it must have been with Leon, Danny, Grams, Bud, Heinie, Fred, Uncle Si, Gramma Mary, Benny and Tammy!!!
