MOGENSEN, Peter

It is with heartfelt sadness that the family of Peter Mogensen is announcing his death which took place on Sunday, February 27, 2022; he was in his 70th year. He will be greatly missed by his wife Betty; daughters Alicia and Katrina; grandson Austin; great-granddaughter Gwendlyn and her mother, Dylynne. Peter was born in Denmark and moved to Canada with his parents, Petra and Svend (both now deceased) when he was about six years old. He became a Canadian citizen a few years after being in Canada and has always been proud to be a Canadian citizen. He has also never forgotten his Danish heritage and proudly shared Danish recipes and traditions with his family for many years. Additional family members who will mourn his loss include his sister, Lis Nielsen, brother Johan Mogensen and his wife Carolyn, and brother-in-law Mario De Buono. He will also be missed by his brother-in-law Paul Goetz and his wife Cathy, brother-in-law Bob Goetz and his friend Kim, as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins. Peter was predeceased by his sister Anni and her husband Bent Mortensen, sister Ane Marie De Buono, and brother-in-law Aage Nielsen. He was also saddened to lose his niece, Marianne. Many people will remember Peter as an artistic chainsaw carver, a knowledgeable chainsaw salesperson, and a skilled small engine mechanic. His immediate family will remember him as a loving father with an entertaining wit who could often make us chuckle. Visitation will be held at the England Funeral Home, 294 Main Street South, Mount Forest, on Sunday, March 6th from 2:00-4:00 and 6:00-8:00pm. You do not need to schedule an appointment to attend, please come anytime during the scheduled visitation hours. Masks are mandatory. A private funeral service is being held.
