Not sure what to say?

I had the good fortune to work with Pete at the beginning of my career under Unocal in the earlier 90's. He was very kind as he patiently and without reservations mentored me about the instrumentation craft. He had great insight in the inner working of mechanical devices and shared and delivered his knowledge in a manner that made it easier to understand. I tank you Pete for your help. You will be missed.

Rest easy, Brother.

I join Mike O'Connor in expressing my sympathy at Pete's passing.

My condolences to you and your family, Susan.

Pete, Sue and their children have been so important in our own families lives. We are so very sorry to hear of his passing. Our hearts go out to Sue, Ryan, Scott and Steve.

I was one of the privileged of knowing Pete. I worked with him at the refinery and always had a great time talking to him because he was very knowledgeable of so many things, that we could talk for a long time. I really admired that he quit his job to dedicate his life to raise his children. It takes a special person to do so.
He'll be highly missed.

I am so saddened to hear of Pete's passing. He had the most unique sense of humor and kept us who worked with him in stitches. The campouts we had in the Sierras were epic! RIP old buddy!
