Tye Thomas Petersen, the son of Daron and Holly (Brown) Petersen, was born on December 3, 1993, in Sioux City, Iowa. Tye grew up in Danbury, Iowa and received his education in the Maple Valley-Anthon Oto School District graduating with the class of 2012.
Upon graduation, Tye entered the work force. His employment included Hy-Vee, Bomgaars, Food Pride, The Gypsy Wagon, and was head chef at Arrow B Arena events in Ponca, Nebraska, where he was known most for his fancy coffee drinks and famous bloody Mary’s. Tye’s most recent employment was at Horn Memorial Hospital in Ida Grove, Iowa, where he was currently employed at the time of his passing.
Tye was an animal lover and avid outdoorsman. He loved attending the Woodbury County Fair where he showed cattle, horses, sheep, and rabbits during his years in 4-H. He continued his love for animals by selling eggs from his chickens and having rabbits, fish, and birds. He was always ambitious and never afraid to get his hands dirty.
Tye could be found almost daily on his mower during the summer; whether the grass needed cut or not. He was always one to keep busy and loved to be outside. Most recently Tye enjoyed time spent working on his fish pond. He treasured time spent with his family and friends at Lake Okoboji and relaxing in his green chair. Tye was a family man and will be missed by so many.
Left to cherish his memory include his parents Daron and Holly Petersen of Danbury, IA; brothers Tanner (Jenna) Petersen and Turner (Becca) Petersen both of Anthon, IA; niece Finley and another niece on the way; grandparents Gary and Janice Brown and Donna Petersen all of Anthon, IA; uncles and aunts Rod (Holly) Brown of Ponca, NE, Cory (Bridget) Brown of Anthon, IA, Denise Petersen of Fort Dodge, IA, Dean (Donita) Getting of Fort Dodge, IA and Stan (Kathy) Petersen of Danbury, IA; many loving cousins and extended family; friend Shane Saxon of Correctionville, IA; and his four-legged companion Willow.
He was preceded in death by his grandfather Earl Petersen.
