Marilyn Kay "Mary" Peterson, 60 years of age, of Bertrand, passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, April 14, 2016 at the Phelps Memorial Health Center in Holdrege, Nebraska. Mary was born October 5, 1955 at North Platte, Nebraska, the fifth of six children born to James and Helen (Nelsen) Ewald. Mary's primary education began at a one-room school house north of Curtis, Nebraska until attending Medicine Valley Public School, where she graduated from Medicine Valley High School with the class of 1973. She then pursued higher education at Kearney State College in Kearney, Nebraska, where Mary received her Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education with an emphasis on Early Childhood.
On September 24, 1976 she was united in marriage to Dennis E. Peterson, north of Curtis at the Ebenezer Lutheran Church and to this union four children were born: Seth Edward, Jillian Kay, Nathan James, and Lucas Paul. The family made their home in Bertrand, where Mary operated a Pre-School out of their house for several years. In 1982, they relocated to a farm north of Bertrand, where she continued her pre-school. Mary loved life on the farm, where she enjoyed raising sheep, chickens, ducks and was devoted to tending to her garden and rose bushes. In 1997, Mary began her employment at the Phelps Memorial Health Center in Holdrege, where she served as the Unit Secretary until her retirement.
Mary enjoyed sewing dresses for her daughter and granddaughters, quilted many items that she loved to give to family and friends, and will be remembered for her excellent cooking. Many nights were enjoyed sitting with Dennis on their patio together in the evening talking and listening to the birds.
