Long time West Seattle/Alki resident died on Oct. 4th. Survived by her wife Jane Abbot Lightly. Pete-e was one of the sweetest people I ever met. You can read more about her storied life in the Seattle Times and many other online articles.

Sorry to hear this. Here’s the Times URL, for those who can get past the paywall:
https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/pete-e-petersen-first-to-get-same-sex-marriage-license-in-wa-dies/

We extensively covered Pete-e and Jane making history with their marriage license thirteen years ago!

As-it-happened coverage: History! Same-sex marriage licensing in King County

I hope someone will send us her obituary for publication.
