Neva L. Peters, the daughter of Albert and Maymie (Segelke) Mehrens was born October 7, 1916 in Calumet, Iowa. She received her education in Calumet and graduated from Calumet High School in 1934. On January 8, 1939, she was united in marriage to Clarence J. Peters in Calumet, Iowa. After their marriage the couple farmed for 40 years before retiring in 1978 and moving into Paullina. While in Paullina she worked at Jan’s Dress Shop until it closed. Her husband preceded her in death on March 16, 2000 in Primghar. Neva continued to make her home in Paullina until moving to Red Oak in 2004 to be near her daughter due to health issues. She made her home at Acorn Acres in Red Oak for the last several years. She passed away on Thursday, April 19, 2012 at the Montgomery County Memorial Hospital in Red Oak, reaching the age of 95 years, 6 months and 12 days.
She was a member of the First Presbyterian Church in Paullina. She enjoyed walking, playing cards, having coffee with her friends and her Saturday night TV shows. In earlier years she loved to dance with polkas and waltzes to Guy Lombardo and Lawrence Welk. While at Acorn Acres she enjoyed activities there and loved to play Pitch and Skipbo. Neva was a long time Iowa State Cyclone’s fan and loved to follow the teams.
