Peter K. Wiese was born in Malta, MT
on October 1, 1942 to Kyle and Georgia (Smith) Wiese. He
was raised on the family farm south of Malta, graduating from
Malta High School in 1960, then later from Northern Montana
College in Havre. He joined the Marine Corps in 1960 and
served until 1965, where he served in Vietnam. He later
served in the Montana Army National Guard where he completed his
28 year military career.
Pete married Clarine Vert on October
15, 1965 in Sturgis, SD. The couple had 7 children,
Lenora, Dan, JoAnn, Lee (Monkey), Art, Rob and John. They
farmed and ranched south and west of Malta for many years before
moving to California during the 80’s to work as a John Deere
service technician. The family returned to Malta in 1987
and resumed the farming operation while also working in town.
He was preceded in death by his
parents Kyle and Georgia (Smith) Wiese, wife Clarine (Vert)
Wiese, and son Walter Lee (Monkey) Wiese.
Pete is survived by sister Rosemary
Black of Williston, ND, daughter Lenora Perkins of Saco, son
Danford and Carrie Wiese of Havre, daughter JoAnn Dunlap of
Reno, NV, son Arthur and Wanda Wiese of Havre, son Robert Wiese
of Malta, and son John and Janni Wiese of Malta, as well and
numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Pete had a love of all types of
agriculture and will always be remembered for his hard work
ethic and mechanical skills. He was devoted to his family
and worked tirelessly to provide everything that they needed,
even if that meant he went without.
