We always enjoyed Peter's company usually in various visits to Chicago area. We will certainly miss his wonderful nature and caring attitude toward his many friends. Best wishes to the family / friends / relatives.

I am sorrowed to learn of Peter's passing. Peter and I were friends during his college days, in the late 1960's. Peter was the endless joker, and I fondly recall those days of humor and good times. Peter and I lost touch after college days, but I still fondly remember his wit and humor. I extend my condolences to his surviving brother Mike and his extended family. I do not forget the fun days on Ridgeway Blvd. in DePere. To all survivors, we all agree that Peter was a great guy. May he RIP.

I knew Peter when he lived in the Chicago area, when we were both in transition. He was a very friendly, outgoing, extremely kind person who would offer help to anyone who needed it. He had a great attitude and was just a great guy. I am sure this loss will be felt deeply by his family and friends who knew him best.
