Alexis Peterson Obituary (1988 - 2026)

With deep love and heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Alexis Marie (Funk) Peterson, who was born on April 16, 1988, and passed away peacefully in her sleep at her home on April 8, 2026. Alexis was a devoted wife, a loving mother, a cherished daughter, sister, and an incredibly loyal friend. She shared a beautiful life with her husband, Dustin William Peterson, and together they built a family that meant everything to her. Her greatest joy and proudest role in life was being a mother to her twin daughters, Ava May Peterson and Skylar Marie Peterson, who were truly her whole world. Alexis had a deep love for the outdoors and found happiness in the simple, meaningful things—paddle boarding on the water, listening to music, and creating beauty through crafts, especially working with flowers. She loved doing nails with her nieces, turning small moments into lasting memories filled with laughter. She had a special place in her heart for animals and a loyalty that ran deep. If Alexis was in your corner, you knew it—and you knew she’d never leave it. She was strong, genuine, and unapologetically herself, with a quiet confidence that drew people in and made them feel understood. She is survived by her husband, Dustin; her daughters, Ava and Skylar; her father, Mark Earl Funk; her mother, Sandra Kay (Green) Funk; and her brothers, Taylor, Chris, and Collyn Funk. She also leaves behind many cousins, aunts, uncles, and friends who will carry her memory with them always. She is preceded in death by her brother, Stephen, and her grandparents, May, Dwayne, Eugene, and Connie. A celebration of life will be held on April 19th from 4:00–7:00 PM, with services from 4:00–5:00 PM followed by food and an open microphone from 5:00–7:00 PM.

Though her time here was far too short, the love she gave—to her family, her friends, and everyone lucky enough to know her—will live on. She will be missed more than words can hold and remembered in every laugh, every song, and every quiet moment outdoors.
