Jemond Alexander Petersen II, son of Jemond A. Petersen, Sr. and Stephaine A. Hall, was born on April 6, 1991 at Ft. Campbell, Kentucky Army Hospital. He attended and graduated from Youth Challenge program at Camp Shelby MS with his High School Diploma. He then attended Job Corps and graduated with his electricians apprentice certificate. Jemond II, “Alex” then received his CDL from the Truck Drivers Institute and this is where he found his calling.

At an early age Alex knew that sports were not for him. Instead he found enjoyment in reading fantasy/sci-fi/history novels. He loved the L.A.R.Ping community. He could sit and talk with his brothers for hours about Pokemon, magic, video games and Star Wars. After a haul on the road, in his downtime he loved to take his brothers to the movies, usually sci-fi. Nothing was more important to Alex than family and he was very proud of his Irish/Prussian heritage.

He is survived by his father, Jemond (Melanie) Petersen; mother, Stephaine (Jake) Ewing; grandfather, Ran D. Petersen; brothers, Jacob, Michael and Conner Petersen; sister, Jade Hennig; numerous aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews and a ton of loving cousins.

Alex passed away on December 30th 2019, at the age of 28 years old doing the job he loved to do.
