My sincere condolences to the family ,of one of my best friends. I've never adapted to a brothers spirit of truth as I did with him. Peterson was a visionary. He was talented in whatever he put his mind to. A God fearing man, who was no doubt connected to THE MOST HIGH GOD , most importantly...by no stretch of the the imagination. A man who loved his family and he will be missed...Selah
