I only knew you for s short time Pete but I have some great memories from you coming to my place to visit. I'll always remember the coffee that you and Dale made and brought up to me at the house. You are a very loved father, Amanda will always have great memories of you to keep in her heart forever.

A life cut too short much too soon
Just as he was reaching for the moon.
Thinking of him makes me sigh,
He's playing with the big bands in the sky.
Looking down on Ayla and you,
A guardian angel born anew.
My Dad will be there to shake his hand,
And probably will ask to join the band.
What a symphony we will hear
If we listen with minds all clear.
Hear the music in your heart
And from you he'll not depart.
