Not sure what to say?

It's hard to believe it's been 10 years since you left us. There isn't a day that I don't think of you and we all still miss you terribly. I can picture you sitting in your recliner with Missy Cat in your lap, watching Olivia graduate high school and starting college. I know you are watching over Hannah as she drives for this first year, and as always, watching over Rissy. You have much to be proud of in your children...they do you proud every day. Rest in peace and love! Susie

It has been over 50 years since I've seen Pete. He was a good guy and a good friend. I'm quite confident that he is happy and comfortable with his life in Heaven.-----Jim Soltis

Another year has passed and we all continue to miss you. Your granddaughters are growing into beautiful young women. Olivia is amazing...smart and quite the softball player! She graduates this year and is being recruited by colleges. Little Red lights up the world with her energy and smile and humor. And Marissa continues to be Marissa and continues to face her challenges head on. And oh, your 3 year old namesake is smart and a ball of energy! Your children learned well from you and are...

Well buddy, We had our 50th year Keystone Class Reunion two years ago.

Remember at our 40th reunion and we said those then 50th reunion members are old.

Miss the telephone talks and reunions but know that you are with God.

Its hard to believe its been 6 years since you left us and with each year we miss you more. Nothing is the same without you. Our marriage may have ended but you were still an important and irreplaceable part of my life. I still miss our talks and your hugs whenever we saw each other. You were my closest friend and the father of our children, the man who stood by me and only wanted the best for me for all those years, even after our divorce. How I wish you were here to see our son get married...

As Pete’s roommate of two years, I had a great opportunity to watch, observe and learn from Pete. Pete was a calm man, even when “bullets were flying”. He was always able to remain under control. He loved Motown music and encouraged and taught me to do he same. I remember late nights in our room talking about life. Topics included Politics, girlfriends, school, sports, “The Boppin Burg”, cheesesteaks, the future, et al. I loved and valued his perspectives. He was a treasure and missed by so...

We all miss you terribly and you are always in our hearts and prayers. Your children feel lost without you and the girls speak of you daily. Rest in peace and love Pete. Till we all meet again.. Susie

I'm late to make a comment re my good buddy and 2 year roommate at The Key. I can't begin to list the many, many great memories I had with Pete. I always considered us close friends, especially recognizing we were randomly assigned as roommates. Pete loved soul music; he had a great sense of humor and an insightful perspective on life. I loved intramural football with him and I'm so sorry he left us so early. I still think of him with great affection. I still have a photo of us smoking...
