I will always remember Pete as a generous kind sensitive and loving family man. Even if you weren't really family, he always made you feel as if you were. He opened his home to me when I was 16 years old and treated me as if I was family. He always showed that he cared whether it be by just talking with me to see how my day was going, inviting me to join him and Dee when they would watch tv, bringing food to my room to make sure I ate enough, and when I deserved it- he'd kick my butt. I'll never forget everything that Pete and Dee did for me. I mostly remember what an amazing father, husband, and family man that he was. My deepest heartfelt sympathy goes out to his entire family. I know he will be dearly missed.
