Don had an unspoken faith in God and was a true believer in his Savior Jesus Christ.  He was honest and forth right with everyone.  His word was his bond and his handshakes were priceless.  He taught his children that family is the most important thing in life.  He taught them that respect is earned not given and to always strive for success.

Don was preceded in death by his parents, William and Annie Peters; and siblings, Glenn Dale Peters, Gary Lynn Peters, and Betty June Roller.
