of Little Rock, AR
October 8, 1987 - January 19, 2026
William Dale Petersen, 38, of Little Rock, AR. went to be with the Lord on January 19, 2026. He is survived by his daughter Aubree Petersen, son Kayden Potts, mother Paula Petersen, father Roger Petersen, sister Jennifer Petersen, , nephew Peyton Like, grandmother Grace S. Baker, and many aunts, uncles and cousins. Preceded in death by his grandfather William C. Baker, and grandparents Dale and Maggie Petersen.
He graduated from Southwest Christian Academy and attended ITT tech. He found his success as a HVAC technician. Growing up he enjoyed many days hunting and fishing with his father, grandfather and cousins. His leisure time was spent with family and friends riding 4 wheelers down muddy trails and fishing. There were many hours spent around campfires sharing stories and good times. Dale always had an open ear. His soft heart led him to being available for those who needed him whether family or friend.
His presence will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I was Dale's English teacher. He knew how to make class a little more fun. He was ornery sometimes but in a way that made me smile (most of the time lol), and he had such a beautiful heart. I pray God inundates his loved ones with supernatural peace.
