Peter Michael Joseph

Born Sept 25, 1986 in Spokane, departed this life March 29, 2006 at age 19 1/2.

Peter is survived by his mother and stepfather, Maria Joseph and Bill Hendershott, of Spokane; father and stepmother, Dennis and Dana Louthan, of Lynden (formerly of Friday Harbor); half-brother, Craig Leo Louthan; four uncles, three aunts, nine cousins and three paternal grandparents.

Peter enjoyed spending time in Friday Harbor during summers and holidays, especially since his little brother, Craig, lived there. He made some close friends in the family neighborhood and also at youth group functions at Friday Harbor Presbyterian Church.

  

He was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Peter J. and Ilah Joseph of Elkins, W.Va.; his paternal grandmother, Arlene Rock, of Seiling, Okla.; and half-brother, Ronnie Roy Louthan II.

 

Services were held in Spokane on May 6 and in Elkins, W.Va., where he had been a resident for a time and where he was buried on May 13.

 

He was dearly loved. He blessed our lives and we will miss him very much but will hold him forever close in our hearts.
