CLEAR LAKE, Iowa — A marker now honors the Clear Lake pilot who was flying a plane that crashed in 1959, killing himself and passengers Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P. Richardson, known as the Big Bopper.
A field about five miles north of Clear Lake has long featured a memorial to the three musicians,
but until recently, little was said about pilot Roger Peterson.
The new metal marker is shaped like a pair of wings and includes Peterson’s name and the date of the crash.
There is also a new marker at the road which helps first timers find the crash area.
