Barbara, I am sorry to here that Pete passed away. I enjoyed many good conversations with him on the front porch of our apartments in Somers Point. He was a great neighbor and someone that I felt privilaged to know. Everyone that knew Pete will miss him but know that he is still with us in spirit and will never be forgotten. Please take care of yourself and God bless you and your family.

To All Family & Friends,
Every one who knew Pete knows he was a great friend & person. But most of all he was a wonderful husband , father, pop-pop & great pop-pop. He was my husband & soul mate for 50 years. He loved me more than anything & I him. I am lost without him & I always will be. But I will recover because he taught how to be independent.

Pete Quattrone was a very special man. Yes, he was a strict father but a loving one. We had our differences, but that's what made us alike in many ways. He was religious and said his prayers daily. He made the best homemade pizza and clams with linguine. He was a faithful husband and friend. He told the best jokes and stories! Man, what a memory for those jokes!! He always wanted his car clean, his appearance sharp, his hair combed and his face shaved! Oh, the shoes he used to own!! I will miss this man with his many quirks and opinions, he was the best. He always spoke his mind and I got on his nerves alot. He was the father I never had, he always told me how it is, even when I didn't agree. He cared about my family and I. Again, I WILL MISS HIM SO!! Lunch at LaPizzatega will never be the same. We love you, Pete!

I was so fortunate to have met "Mr. Quattrone" during my very first job: advertising sales at The Sentinel Ledger. Pete was always dressed to the nines, perfectly coiffed, and rushing out to meet his next sale. Though he presented a "wiseguy" persona that he played well, his sweetness always shone through. I'm so sorry I didn't get a chance to see him again and am so sorry for your loss.
