I Worked with Peter, Ernie and Gibby summers when I was in high school for Lowe construction excavation. Peter was like a big brother and taught me a lot about construction. I've never met a harder worker than Peter. He was always smiling and patient as I tried to keep up with him. I never could. Ernie was my best friend and I think of him often. Rest easy my friend.

Never forget I had to...

So, so sorry to hear of Peter's passing....my sincerest condolences to Elaine and Family. Peter was a rock who will be greatly missed. He was a "Salt of the Earth" wonderful guy who was and always will be my friend. He was my first childhood friend when my family moved to Meriden in 1957.

We saw each other less frequently after high school & marriage, but when...

Pete had a great sense of humor and loved working, especially with his bulldozer. Pete was very compassionate and selfless, always putting others first.

Peter owned two businesses in Meriden: Lowe Excavating and Construction, LLC (his father started in 1946) and Mountain Spring Water Company. Interment will be private.
