She was born on March 21, 1925 in Holbrook Arizona to Joseph Marion Tanner and Lilly Black Tanner. She married Frederick Henry Peters on November 17, 1945 who preceded her in death on June 30, 1979.

She dearly loved her family and is survived by her daughter Pat Haddock of Orem Utah and her husband Rod Haddock, and her son Mike Peters of Fort Collins Colorado and his wife Sue Peters. She also leaves behind 10 grandchildren and their spouses, and 18 great grandchildren. She was overjoyed with the prospect of 3 additional great grandchildren who are on the way.
