March 1, 1950 — October 24, 2025 (age 75)

Janette Sachie Moriyama Petersen was born on March 1, 1950, in Brigham City, Utah to Shigeki and Mary Yoshiko Sato Moriyama. She thought it would have been cool to have been born on Leap Year but her parents chose March 1st, (It wasn't Leap Year anyway). She was the oldest of two other siblings, a brother, Joel and sister, Joni. They grew up as normal kids in Tremonton. Her grade school friends invited her to attend Primary and when they were being baptized, she decided that she wanted to do so, also. The Stake Missionaries were sent to her parents to teach them about the Church that she would be joining and they were baptized nine months later. They were sealed as an eternal family in the Logan LDS Temple a year later.
