Memories and Condolences

Pete's unique quick wit, his kindness and his gentle nature will be missed by the many people who were fortunate to know him. From help with a countertop at the St. Clair Forest City, to wonderful celebrations on Hiller, through weddings and the birth of children, I feel that I was privileged to know Pete.
But Pete had the last laugh when I had a flat tire/blowout in his funeral procession right in Our Lady of Perpetual Help's courtyard. That beat all of my corny jokes which he (usually patiently) suffered through.
My sincere sympathy, along with that of John, Elizabeth and Victoria are with you Linda, along with Andrew, Kathy, Stephen and Pete’s brothers and sister and their families. You are all in our prayers.
"Pete, we hardly knew ye."

The last time I saw Peter was at Forest City on Brook Park Road in Parma. We had a nice chat about old times. We went to grade school together at St. George's. Many memories I will cherish. My sympathies to his family and friends.
