Peterson, Donald W., Jr. "Don" passed away at the age of 76 in Ft. Myers, FL on April 17, 2017 after a short, hard fight with cancer. Don was a wonderful, sweet man who will be terribly missed. He graduated from St. Louis Park High School in 1959 and the University of Minnesota in 1962. Over the course of his life he worked for General Mills, EcoLab and IBM Corporation. He loved to spend time with his family and dogs, going on his boat and playing tennis. He is survived by his loving wife of 54 years, Linda (Bolduc) Peterson, his children, Donald W. III, Steve and Anne, his six grandchildren and one great grandchild. A private Celebration of Life is pending. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that any donations be made to The Animal Humane Society in his honor.
