Hi Pop! It´s Haley. I never wrote on here because it was too hard at the time, but I´m thinking about you right now. We all miss you so much, and I wish I could have more game of pool with you. I´m going to be 20 soon, and it doesn´t feel real. I wish you could be here to see me into my adulthood, and I wish you could´ve seen me graduate high school. I´m not sure what else to say besides I love and miss you.

To Petes Family, I just came to learn of Petes passing. Please accept my heartfelt condolences. I worked with Pete at Mack Trucks for years. Pete was a hard worker always giving his best. I never met anyone that had a bad thing to say about Pete as he is well liked by everyone. Just as, if not more important, Pete was a dedicated Union man who could be relied on to always be there if called upon. As a friend, Pete is a loyal, honest & thoughtful man that Im sure his closest friends valued so much. We were partners on the assembly line 45 years ago & we got to play a few rounds of golf during those years. Another friend of ours & I did some hunting on the mountain in back of Petes house & got to enjoy a few cold ones with Pete after the hunts. My friendship with Pete was old & distant but for me our friendship endured those many years. Id like to believe & I hope Pete felt that way too. While its hard to say goodbye, all who liked or loved this good man can look forward to the day youll see & be with Pete again. Till then, goodbye my old friend.

Dear Joy, My sister Jane and I always liked Pete and were so sorry to read of his passing. We lived on the other side of Donna and Jimmy. I remember him as a handsome and fun neighbor who helped younger kids, such as me, build a snowman. I also remember him marrying a beautiful woman, the love of his life. May all your memories bring you comfort.

Dear Mrs. Adamson, Pete and Eric,
I will forever be grateful to have the nickname , LA Woman, all because of Mr. Adamson. He was a good man that made me laugh often, introduced me to billiards, and taught me how to swing a golf club in my late teens...as he was the only other lefty golfer I knew besides Pete Jr. He will be definitely be missed. Mrs. A and Pete, please call and reach out anytime as Im just around the corner. RIP Mr. A!
