Kurt Edward Peterson, 63 a long-time resident of Whitman passed away peacefully May 18, 2020. Kurt was an avid walker. If you happened to pass him on his way to Duval’s or Millie’s, you were likely greeted with a quick smile or a friendly hello. Kurt loved to connect with people almost as much as he loved to walk.

Kurt leaves behind a legacy of kindness. His bright smile and deep laughter were impossible to resist. By making the most of every day, appreciating the simple things in life, expressing heart-felt thankfulness and always staying positive he touched the lives of others.
Kurt was preceded in death by his father, Gordon and his mother, Blanche. He is survived by his siblings: Gary Peterson, Lori Shea, Kim Cromwell, Craig Peterson, Glenn Peterson, Lisa Dudley and Melisa Castelo. He is also survived by several cousins and many nieces and nephews.
