Obituary

Norman C. Peterson, 91, passed away peacefully at his home on April 20, 2023.

Born and raised in Perth Amboy, Norman was the son of the late Peter and Martha Bouquin Peterson. In May of 1953 he married the love of his life Veronica Schmidt. They made their home in Fords where they were blessed with four children. He also served his country by devoting six years to the Navy Reserve during the Korean War. Norman was retired from his career at Elizabethtown Gas Co. in Iselin where he was employed as a service technician.

Norman was a parishioner of Our Lady of Peace Church in Fords. He enjoyed time tending to his garden at home, and also appreciated the peace of going out fishing. He and his lovely wife Veronica stayed active by enjoying dancing with their square-dancing group the MT Squares.

In addition to his parents, Norman was preceded in death by his wife Veronica in 2020, his six brothers and two sisters.

He is survived by his children: Norman C. Peterson, Jr and wife Barbara, Thomas J Peterson and wife Nancy, Eileen Petrisin and husband Steven, and Patricia Kaczowski and fiancée Michele.
