Alfred "Al" Andrew Peterson of Monticello, a longtime resident of the area, died Monday, February 14, 2001 at the Catskill Regional Medical Center in Harris after a long illness. He was 82.
The son of the late Alfred Leroy Peterson and May Belle Tiffany Peterson, he was born June 19, 1928 in Long Beach, CA.

He moved to Sullivan County in the 1970's, working various jobs until retirement. Al's knack for telling stories of the adventures of his past, filled with vivid details, would leave even strangers in awe.
