Peter left a tremendous legacy : his 3 sons. It is amazing to watch their love for each other after his unfortunate demise.

Dad,

You were a Great Father. You touched so many lives during your life. You and Mom gave me so much - a loving home, a great childhood, a great education and many found memories.

Love,

Bob

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve. Peters first concern was always his family.
