Deeply saddened by the loss of Mr. Pete. Sending my sincere condolences and prayers to his family and loved ones. I truly admired Mr. Pete and enjoyed working with him when he served as administrator for the Town of Pamplico.

I would like to extend my condolences to the Roger’s Family. My grandfather, James Olin Hucks and Mr. Pete for worked along side each other for decades. The two often collaborated projects being that my grandfather was employed at the City of Marion as Street Superintendent and Mr. Pete as the City Administrator (as well as his many hats such as planning and development). A wonderful memory that was told to be many times was how the two gentlemen and Mayor Bobby Gerald had to go to Richard’s...
