Peter "The Greek" was my friend since Cub Scouts, through school and beyond. He will be sorely missed by myself, "The Boys", and many others. We were texting each other the day he passed - I am truly grateful for that.
Sincere condolences to Barb, and his family and friends.
Until I see you again, my brother from another mother. God Bless.

Peter will be missed here at Rivertowne. Our morning walks always included Maggie (our dog) searching for Peter to get her pat on the head and a dog treat. Rest in peace our dear friend.

I was stunned to hear of your passing and I'm so sad that, at least on this Earth, we will not be together again with The Boys.
Until we meet again
