Debbie,
We are so sorry to hear of Pete's passing. Pete taught me many years ago how to snag baseballs.
My parents, my sister, Suzanne and I went to the Reale's many times when we were kids growing up. We have many fond memories of his parents also. Sincere Sympathy to you.

From the Wallace Family
Dear Family,
I have many fond memories of, and a great love for the Reale family, and your cousins: the Derricks, Currans, Haileys, Holzapfels and others. Although I never knew Ross, I had the pleasure of knowing Rose. With her strength, courage and Christian faith, she raised a house full of children and was always there for her family.
There will forever be a special place in my heart for Jimbo, who was as much of a friend as a boyfriend of mine, during our high school years. I guess he must be joyfully singing Beatle songs with John Lennon and George Harrison as he loved to do. I remember Jacky who was friendly, yet shy, and Tommy as the big brother that he has always been for his sister and brothers. And, Margie is the sweet sister loved by all.
Growing up on Oakland Avenue in Christ the King Parish, I often saw Pete, who lived nearby on Rosewood, Ave. and worked at Kelly's Drugstore on Belmont Blvd. He greeted customers with a grin and some interesting story or recent news of the day. Over the years he worked diligently at various jobs and in helping to hold his entire family together. He was strong and witty and had a charm all his own.
I was saddened to learn of Stephanie's death-she was such a beautiful girl...I didn't know until I read Pete's obituary!
My love and prayers to you, Debbie, for being the loving Mama and best wife any man could ask for. Like your mother and mother-in-law Rose, you had a house full of children too, and made the commitment and sacrifice to put the needs of others before your own. I have admired your determination and dedication in doing what you have always done best. I know you will miss Pete, your loving husband and friend, and the father to all of your beautiful children..
Now, Pete has gone to join his wonderful brothers, parents and other loved ones who have gone before him. May you all rest in peace...a rest well deserved indeed.
Much love to your dear family,
Bronwyn Wallace and family
