Hans Petersen, Oberlin College '02, son, brother, and friend, died suddenly in a tragic accident on Wednesday, April 7, 2010. He was installing solar panels on a roof in the San Francisco Bay Area. In his too-short life Hans was a student, a historian, a builder and carpenter, a seminarian, an athlete, a singer, an incredible packrat, a near constant source of warmth and good cheer, and much much more.
He is already deeply missed by a great many.
