He was born Aug. 10, 1922, in the town of Auburn, Wis., to the late Henry and Esther (nee Schaefer) Petermann. He was preceded in death by his wife of 49 years, Arleigh (nee Ehnert) and his brother, Lloyd. He is survived by four loving daughters: Karen (Kari) Eckhardt (Edward) of Grafton; Kathleen (John) Limbach of West Bend; Judith (Tom) Frank of State College, Pa.; and Jeaneen (Brian) Hall of Sturgis.    “Grandpa Pete’s” eight grandchildren: Ed, Christine, John (Tammy), Adam (Jenny), Drew (Phoenicia), Nicole (Tom), Aaron and Gretchen (fiancé Jason) were one of the great joys of his life.

He was a church council officer, elder, Sunday School teacher, youth director, usher and tireless committee member.   Del was considered a “cornerstone” of the Kettle Moraine Dartball League in which he played for 68 years. Del was elected to the Wisconsin Dartball Hall of Fame in 2010. International Lutheran Laymen’s League, AAL, Camp Luwisomo, Living Word Lutheran High School, and Bethesda Lutheran Home will miss Delbert’s lifelong generosity, support and participation.  “Well done, good and faithful servant!” Funeral services for Delbert will be held at 11 a.m.  Saturday at St. Andrew Lutheran Church in Farmington, Wis.  The Rev.

Our beloved Ed passed away in his home the afternoon of July 2, 2010, his dog Lupita at his side. May he finally rest in peace knowing he can watch over all of whom he loved so much. Born and raised in Adrian, Ed attended Adrian College and lived and thrived in this community for several years. He then moved to Virginia, where he lived for 9 years while never losing his devotion to his only child — Ashley Morgan Cavasos-Franck — his family, friends, and of course we can’t forget his passion for the University of Michigan football team. Ed was known to all as “A Jack of all Trades.” Whether it was carpentry, sewing, cooking, drawing, coaching, nursing, being a Jedi Knight, a cuddly Eddie Bear or just doing crafts with all his nieces and nephews, anytime spent with their Uncle Ed was surely going to be a great adventure. He will forever be remembered for his outgoing personality, wit and charm, which won the hearts of many who were fortunate to cross paths with him. He brought laughter, light and clarity to several people in his life. His generosity knew no boundaries and he will be missed terribly by  his family and friends. Ed was preceded in death by his father, Abel Cavasos Sr.; mother, Consuelo Cavasos; and brother David Cavasos. Also left behind are his wife, Tina Cavasos; daughter, Ashley M. Cavasos-Franck and her husband, Josh Franck; and grandson, Sebastian Gilbert Franck — the light of Ed’s life. Brothers Abel Jr., Albert, and Enrigue along with sisters Geneva Cantu (brother-in-law Luis Cantu), Kristina Maria and Corrinna Consuelo (brother-in-law Shane Gintack) also survive. Ed has chosen cremation and the family is honoring his wishes and having a party for him from 2 to 5 p.m. Friday, July 9, at the Steele Carriage House behind the Croswell Opera House in Adrian. Memorial contributions and floral arrangements may be sent to Ashley Cavasos-Franck, 4594 Ogden Hwy., Adrian, MI. Condolences to the family may be sent to the families homestead at 1825 W. Valley Road, Adrian, MI. GO BLUE! |
