Obituary: Jonathan F. Peters

Jonathan F. Peters, at 50
Surrounded by loving family, Jonathan Frederick Peters of Hull died June 4 at Massachusetts General Hospital after a long battle with cancer. He was 50.
He grew up in Bridgewater, graduated from Bridgewater-Raynham Regional High School, and attended Colby College and Bridgewater State University. However, his favorite place was Nantasket Beach, where he and his wife, Pamela Pattavina, lived for 18 years. 
Mr. Peters spent his career in health care, forming close friendships along the way. People who had the chance to know him would describe him as empathetic, creative, thoughtful, and always thinking of others.

He’d shop-vac your flash-flooded basement while you were out of town and never ask for a thank you. He never forgot the vegetarians at Thanksgiving. He grew river irises and beautiful peonies and had just started a koi pond; he loved gardening. 
In addition to his wife, Pamela J. Pattavina, of Hull, Mr. Peters leaves his children: Sydney Peters, Joshua Peters, Danielle Pattavina, Amanda Pattavina, Neela Ryan, John Pattavina, Oliver Pattavina, and Hunter Pattavina.
