Peter Girard Gelinas

20 yrs on, you are still remembered, bless you and your family.

On this very sad day, I'm thinking of beautiful Susan in heaven with Peter and Gerry.
And here left behind, her beautiful daughter Marybeth.
God Bless you all,

I'll always remember how we became friends while we were working together as teenagers at the Madison Flower Shop. I remember the time you loaned me your car so I could go out on a date (I was grounded from my parents cars...of course). What I'll remember most is the person you were and the values you held strong. I'll never forget how you pushed me to come work in NYC and how you changed my attitude about life and how I lived it. And how your death reinforced that philosophy. You were right,...

We buried Mr. Mcfadden today Peter at St. Margaret Catholic Church. They mentioned you and I remember many, many times we played football at 90 Liberty Street.

Paladino told a story about you, later in the day, you made him shave his head before the first game, 1986 Xavier senior year.

Much love 'G'. Never forget.

This photo of Peter reminds me of the winsome and happy young child that I occasionally babysat. His grandfather lived next door to my family and little Peter was ALWAYS so happy! His joy exuded from every pore! One vivid memory I have of Peter sounds so pedestrian, but actually it has always been a vivid image for me (before and after 9/11). He was smiling, laughing and running around with his sister in the driveway next door. It is 40 years later, and the memory of Peter's joy that day...

God Bless

Its so nice to see all of these messages people have sent over the years. You were loved by so many. Everybody misses you. You would be so proud of your sons. We miss you every day.
