Dee and Wayne Peltzer were quite the socializing couple, and we enjoyed much hilarity with them at Jaycee functions. Dee was the everready battery, the life of the party, and lots of fun. But also serious and capable of well-thought out decisions whenever required, just like her hubby. Egads, they were fun!

Lived very close to Max Lorenzen (Flying Dutchman), the mom, Delores and Butch. Had much fun with her and she always had a big smile and one of the nicest person you could ever have fun with and grow up together. I’ve thought of her over the years and wondered how she was doing. It is sad to have read this news of her passing. Delores will definitely leave a large void in many peoples heart.

I am so sorry for your loss. I met Dee the first day I moved to Miles when she she came across the alley with a pitcher of ice tea and two glasses. As our moving truck had broke down, we sat on the stairs and drank our tea. That is how I saw you kids grow-up. We have drank many cups of teas since either at her house or mine, I will miss our tea time when I come back to Miles. She was a good friend.
Wanda Bankey says
so sorry for your loss. They were good neighbors at one time.
LaVonne Segmiller Sticka says
After many years, reading the obituaries of Delores and her brother, Bob, brought back so many memories. I knew them when we were children living in Hesper, Montana. We all went to Elder Grove school there in the 1950’s. Have brought them to mind many times over the years. They will live on in my memories, and the memories of many others.
