Not sure what to say?

Peter was an exceptional man - he gave his all for family, friends, and work. I continue to remember him often, and hope that his family has been able to move on and benefit due to his life with them as father and husband. RIP my friend.

Peter came to work for me shortly before 911. I was late to the office that day. Despite the heavy traffic on the cell phones, I was able to talk with him a few times. Peter, knowing as I did about the structure of the building, chose not to leave immediately after the first plane hit, but to stay back and try to convince the other tenants on our floor to not wait for help to come to them, but to leave as soon as possible. Peter eventually got all of them ready to leave, and he personally...

Lisa and Family,
I was shocked and saddened to hear of Peter's passing. He was a great boss, loads of fun and mostly a great husband and father. We are all better for having known him, and you have many memories to cherish and get you through these tough times ahead. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you!

I was very sorry to hear about Peter's passing. I have known him for many years as both a friend and a colleague.

My thoughts are with his family. I know with Peter family was number 1 and there was no close second.

It is hard to believe we will no longer go to 57th street to shop for guitars, get calls from you and your son to discuss The Beatles, or run down interference problems at Yankees Stadium, but there are many good times to reflect on.

The City will...

I worked with Peter at the World Trade Center prior to 9/11. Please remember that Peter was a hero during that terrible morning. Even knowing that the building would probably come down, he stayed behind on the 22nd floor to help convince several people to leave and not wait for the fireman. He then led a small group of fellow workers through a burning hallway and to the exit stairs.

I played chess with him at his home, and my family got to meet his family.

When his job...

I'm very sorry for your loss. I've worked with Peter on several large wireless projects over the past 14 years. Conversation always lead to music and baseball. Usually, which was better, my N.L Cardinal's or his A.L Yankee's. God Bless you and your family.

Dear Lisa & family,
I am so sorry, I just heard about Pete, as I was away at the time. He was such a great and caring family man. I remember he snuck into school to see Jonathan because he had to go out of town(at the last minute) and wanted to say good bye to him. Just remember now you'll have your own personal guardian angel watching over you. My prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time in your lives.

The first thing that comes to mind when you think about Pete is his big smile. I am better for knowing him and his loss is felt by so many. No words will comfort you and your children but you should all know that he has a legacy built on love.

Lisa,

Mom and Pop Pop will always be by your side ~ just reach out when you are in need. I will miss my Yankee fan partner. No need to tell you what a good husband and father he was 'cause you know that.
Love you much,
Grammy and Pop Pop
