Obituary for Lucille E. (Scheer) Peters | Schoen Funeral Home (schoenfhm.com)
April 18, 1931 ~ July 3, 2022 (age 91)
Lucille Elizabeth (Scheer) Peters, 91, Jewell, went to be with her Lord and Savior on July 3, 2022. Lucille was born on April 18, 1931 to Peter J. and Emma Scheer. She married Nicholas A. Peters on April 22, 1953 and to this union they were blessed with 11 children.
She grew up on the farm in Hunter, KS helping with much of the farming and chores. she especially loved riding her horse "Babe" when she was young. She enjoyed quilting and making baby blankets for her kids, grandkids, and great-grandkids. She loved playing the guitar, accordion, "a little piano," and singing whenever asked. She especially loved singing with her daughters and grandkids at nursing homes, fairs, and a very special place she loved to sing at was the Blue Hill Church in Hunter, KS on Memorial Day. She loved taking care of her flowers and plants along with her chickens and dogs. She cared for them all right up until she walked into God's glory.
She was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother. Her kids, grandkids, and great-grandkids were a treasure to her heart. She was loved so dearly and will be greatly missed by all who knew her. We find hope in knowing that her "chores were done" and she is now with Jesus! Isn't that what really matters for all of us? We will see her again when our chores are through.
She is preceded in death by her husband Nicholas Peters, brothers (Greg, Minolph, John, Walt), sisters (Della Schaffer, Margaret), daughters-in-law (Beckie Peters, Jennifer Peters), and grandchildren (Peggy Peters, Noah Smith).
She is survived by her children Daniel (Elaine) Peters, Randall; Joe Peters, Jewell; Judy Peters, Beloit; Jim Peters, Minneapolis; Larry Peters, Lindsborg; Mary Ann (Butch) Eilert, Sabetha; Linda (Robie) Smith, Jewell; Tim (Debra) Peters, Delphos; Rick (Kelly) Peters, Jewell; Sharon (John) Nunneley, Independence; Patty Jo (Bill) Weaver, Aurora; 55 grandchildren, 71 great-grandchildren and one sister-in-law Joan (Don) Goodeyon.
