Obituary For Peter Mathew Friedland

Madison - Peter Mathew Friedland, 62, of Madison, WI, passed away on November 22, 2023.

He was born on August 14, 1961, in Madison to parents Kathy Morrow and “Pete” Vernon (Cathy) Friedland. Peter was a loving husband to Sherri Friedland, and a proud father to his son, Clayton (Jodi) Friedland. He adored his grandchildren, Emily and Owen Friedland.

Peter had a deep passion for the outdoors and cherished spending time with his dogs. He found solace and joy in fishing, and his skill and dedication earned him the world’s tiger trout record, a feat he held proudly for many years. He also took pleasure in cheering for the Badgers and the Packers, showing his unwavering support for his favorite sports teams.

Peter was a graduate of Sun Prairie High School, where he laid the foundation for his lifelong love of learning and personal growth. He valued education and encouraged others to pursue their dreams.

In addition to his immediate family, Peter is survived by his sisters: Gale Knight, Mary (Pete) Parker, and Maurice Friedland (Mari); and many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. He was preceded in death by his son, Ben; nephew, Dylan; grandparents; and other relatives.

A Memorial Celebration will be held from 10:00am until 12:00pm on Saturday, December 2, 2023, at RYAN FUNERAL HOME, 2418 N Sherman Ave, Madison. Memorials may be made to Clayton Friedland at 123 Sunrise Lane, Fall River, WI 53932. To view and sign this guestbook, please visit: www.ryanfuneralservice.com.

what our families say

Tiffany Foster went out of her way to fulfill all my requests, talked me through problems I was facing, and tried to make me feel as comfortable as possible when I was a wreck, totally crushed, and I thank her with all of my heart for that.

The professional manner of the staff made a difficult time a little easier.

Services provided for both parents were perfect, on time, and no issues. Brenda is awesome and strong!

Michael M. | July 2020

Skyler was absolutely amazing. She was so caring and helpful through this whole process. She even went above and beyond to meet with us in DeForest and even to make a stop at our home to drop off or pick up anything needed. While it was a small gesture, it was so helpful and greatly appreciated.
