    Dolf Ian Peterson

    January 17, 1950 - November 7, 2020

    It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Dolf Peterson at Good Samaritan Hospital in Corvallis, OR on Saturday, November 7th, 2020, after a severe stroke. Dolf was 70 years old. Dolf was born in 1950 in Prineville, OR, where he also grew up. His father, Carl, founded Bright Wood Corporation in Madras, OR. Upon graduating from Oregon State University with a BA in Business, Dolf followed his father’s footsteps by opening Millwork Unlimited. After the Lumber Industry fell on hard times, Dolf and his family moved to Corvallis, OR, in the early 1990’s, where he became a real estate broker, earning the title of Principal Broker before he retired. Throughout his life, Dolf was devoted to spending time in nature. He liked to camp and hike, and in the autumn he would hunt deer and elk. While he enjoyed the forests on the West side of the Cascades, the Ochoco range in Central Oregon was the place he loved most. Dolf was also an avid fan of the Oregon State Beavers’ football team. He enjoyed attending games with friends and family, and sharing good-spirited rivalry with friends who attended U of O. Mr. Peterson was predeceased by his father, Carl Peterson, his mother, Ellen Peterson (nee Wienecke) and his two brothers, Chris Peterson and Eric Peterson. He is survived by his wife, Ella Peterson (nee Brown), and two daughters, Amy Peterson and Sara Peterson. Family and friends may pay their respects online at www.demossdurdan.com. There will be no service due to Covid-19. His cremains will be scattered in the Ochoco Mountains next summer. If you wish to honor his memory, take a moment to reach out to a friend or family member to let them know they are cared for.
