Pete L. Markos

Dear Uncle Pete,

Dear Family,

Very sorry to hear of Peter's passing away. I have always retained many good memories of visiting the 'farm' when I visited Battle Creek with your Teta Elena. Your family was always so close-knit and welcoming. Peter was always down-to-earth and good-hearted.

May the Lord receive him into His heavenly Kingdom.

Your cousin,

My thoughts are prayers are with the family. As friends of my family, (George and Marion Briggs) we played together as kids. Thanks for the memories.

you are now with tillie and the lordj

Grandpa Pete was a cool guy! I had so much fun with him. I remember when I would spend the night and in the morning he would have doughnuts and eggs all ready for us! But I know he is in Heaven Having the time of his life!

Brianna Markos will miss Great Grandpa Markos very much!

So Sorry to hear of Pete's passing - the 'old gang' is slowly slipping away... We will miss him
