Was so sorry to hear of Peter's passing. I had the good fortune of working for and with him for 10 years as Director of the Leukemia Society in Wisconsin. He was THE BEST FR CAMPAIGN DIRECTOR in the business. I learned a lot from him so, indirectly, he's with me every day. Warm regards,

Dina and Maria,
My dad, George Primpas just let me know of Peter's passing. We are so sorry to hear of your loss. We have been thinking of many fond memories of Peter, Connie and Anne at Nantasket Beach. May all of them be resting together somewhere in peace.

Hello everyone, I'm so sorry to hear of Uncle Peter's passing. He was a wonderful, generous Uncle. I hate to think of how my family would have ended up without Peter's help. We weren't even blood relatives, but that didn't matter to Peter - his wife's sister (my Mom) needed help & Peter stepped up. His advice was priceless & I still abide by it to this day. May God be with you in your time of mourning. Love, John Gravina
