We were neighbors of Pete until he moved. We loved him & Ruth so much and were so sad when he lost her but so happy when he had love again with GiGi. We missed him when he left and are very sad to hear of his passing. I know he left a lot of love with his family. Blessings to you all.

Beste Gigi en Familie, we condoleren u allen met het overlijden van Piet. Het is al zo lang geleden dat wij elkaar hebben gezien. Het kan al wel meer dan 30 jaar zijn, dat Piet en Ruth in Nederland, bij tante Teuna, op bezoek waren, ik heb toen zijn haar nog mogen knippen ! Wij wensen u veel sterkte toe, ontvang een meelevende groet van Kees & Els Straver

Dear GiGi and family,
We are so sorry for your loss. What a terrific man Pete was. We always enjoyed him when he came to get his hair cut at the Hair Loft and years after. He will be missed, very much. May God bless each of you and help you through this difficult time.
With Love,
