It is with great sadness that Sherry Hunter announces the passing of Peter Jerome Hunter peacefully on December 14th surrounded by his family. He was her best friend, husband and companion for 50 years. Father to Michelle (Thomas) Mason, Melanie Shouldice, & Michael (Sherrylin) Hunter, and his grandchildren Victoria, Alexandria, Hunter, and Clayton Mason, Samantha and Stephanie Shouldice, Michael, Nicholas, and Daniel Hunter.

Brother-in-law to Patricia Petrie (Peter Mountain) and Michael Petrie (Marlene) as well as uncle to numerous nieces & nephews. Peter was born in Stratford, Ontario and has resided in Cambridge since 1976. Peter founded and operated Indu-Test Inspection Ltd for 23 years. Since 1998 he has owned and operated Perfection Inspection Ltd. He was a devoted grandfather, father, and husband who loved his family, his employees, and has lived his life as he ran his business, with honesty, caring, integrity, and a warm heart. He will be so deeply missed. Peter enjoyed sharing his time with friends and family at home in Cambridge by his pool, in Madeira Beach, FL, and at his cottage in Stratford.

I am deeply saddened by this news which I only received just today. Peter and I spoke last December when he kindly wrote a letter of recomendation for me. I don't really know what to say other than my thoughts are with Sherry and the kids. I was hoping to see him this summer and like Dessis Allarie mentioned "we need to put more effort into relationships with friends". How true. I'll miss you Peter.

I planned to see Peter after Christmas. Another lesson learned, "we need to put more effort into relationships with friends." Our time on this earth is short.
The most important lesson I learned from this man was him explaining to me that each individual was important and we needed to help them get to their potential. We shouldn't be disappointed if it is less than we wanted. Each person is valuable and we need to help them succeed at work and life.

So sorry to hear about Peter's passing. He was one of the first contractors I dealt with in my career. For 30 + years he always treated me fairly and was a really nice guy to do business with. We in the NDT Industry will miss him. Our condolences go out to Sherry, Melanie, Michael, and Michelle.
