THE PETERSON GROUP

ELLA PETERSON

DOLF PETERSON

We both grew up in the high desert country of Central Oregon in the small town of Prineville, but didn’t know each other until we met at Central Oregon Community College in Bend. It didn’t take long to decide we were meant for each other and we married in July of 1976. We never could have imagined ourselves leaving Central Oregon—we both still love it there. However, a downturn in the lumber industry sent us first to the Willamette Valley for a short time and then to Northern California for three years, before we decided to return to Oregon. We had lived in Corvallis when Dolf attended Oregon State University for his first degree in business, so we immediately thought of that familiar little city when we selected a place to live. Once here, Dolf pursued a post-bacc. in accounting at OSU, while Ella worked. Ella returned to school after a few years and completed her master’s degree in applied anthropology  at Oregon State University in 2009 (specializing in historical archaeology).

Returning to Corvallis for school turned out to be a boon for our two kids, Cole who was born in 1978, (the first time we lived in Corvallis) and Sara who was born in 1981. The small schools in Central Oregon and the huge overcrowded schools in California didn’t quite fit their needs. At Corvallis High School the kids each found a comfortable niche and thrived. We brought our enthusiasm for swim team to Corvallis and Sara competed for CHS. She was also active in theater. Cole played football for a year. Both kids found it convenient and less expensive to eventually attend OSU. Sara graduated with two degrees—Chinese and English, and began teaching English as a second language right after college. Cole left Corvallis for the bright lights of Las Vegas and is finishing his degree in Computer Engineering at UNLV (but wishes he had done so at OSU).

We have traveled extensively taking long road trips through the Southwest, much of the South, the Midwest, and the Rocky Mountain states. Internationally we have been to Canada, Mexico and Japan.  We’re still dreaming of Great Britain, Russia, much of Europe and New Zealand. A good deal of the time however, our recreational activities are right here in Oregon—there is just so much to do here!

Dolf has been an agent for 12 years now. He and Keller Williams found each other five years ago and he is now Reviewing Broker. He is also a three year member of the Willamette Association of Realtors board of directors. Ella is a newbie but is learning fast and eager to be of service. Years of working with the public before coming to real estate are an asset as are many of the classes she took in her field.
