Terri Lee (Stewart-Yocom) Peterson Obituary (1960

Terri L. Stewart-Yocom Peterson arrived in this world on November 28, 1960. A beautiful pink bundle of love. She was always an inquisitive, kind child. Her family moved to Ogden when she was in the 3rd grade. She attended Polk elementary school. Terri spent her summers swimming and her winters skiing with her family. She attended Ogden High School. Following her graduation, she went on a wonderful trip to Europe. She was such a happy, beautiful daughter as she drove off to attend Utah State University. After a couple of years, Terri got a job at Hercules in the freeport center. It was there she met her future husband, Jeff Peterson. She was a beautiful bride with many family and friends surrounding her. Jeff and Terri were married on June 30,1989. Terri was happiest when she had her two beautiful boys - Josh and River. She was a very dedicated wife and mother. She owned and operated her own business. This gave her more time to be with her boys. It was totally devastating to her when her marriage fell apart. The one thing she clung to were her beautiful sons. These last few years had been very difficult for her. It is difficult to put into words all of the emotions our family is feeling with this shocking news. Our beautiful mother left us unexpectedly on Saturday October 5th of a severe brain bleed. She was so full of love and positivity through whatever life threw her way. She loved the outdoors and enjoyed her garden. Terri was also fascinated with the concept of astrology. Much of her time was spent with her grandchildren, especially tending Jax and chasing him around the outdoors. She will be incredibly missed and will always hold a very special place in our hearts. We know she will be with us and watching over her grandbabies. We will always cherish the memories she gave us. Terri is survived by her Mother, Kathleen Craynor, Sons: Joshua (Shanaya) Peterson, River Peterson, Brothers: Todd (Terre) Yocom, Troy (Brenda) Yocom, Trevor (Monica) Yocom, and Sister, Hilary (Brent) Barnes. Along with 5 beautiful grandchildren. A celebration of her life will be held on Saturday, October 26, 2024 at 11:00 am at Washington Heights Church, 1770 E 6200 S, South Ogden, Utah
