So sorry that I didn't get the word of Peter's passing until today. He was the finest of men making him the best president to lead the Amphibious Veterans of Mass. I did not see him often enough but the meetings in Worcester at Festival time were the best. I know his service was aboard an LST, the big brother to my little LCT, (the ones that rode on top of the larger ship to the battle area and launched. We are all ageing rapidly and I am slightly behind this great guy by a few months but we...

My deepest sympathies to the entire Leasca family. Peter was a great person, a gentleman and a true American patriot. I thank him for his service to our country. His contributions to the community were many, but he was always most humble about what he did. It was never about him, but rather about others. I consider myself most fortunate and lucky to have known him.

To the entire Leasca Family: I extend my heartfelt sympathy to you as I remember your husband, dad, & brother,
Our families were so close together in the days of Putnam, CT. We lived in a small community and our houses were back to back. My brothers, Demitri & Triani Stilu (now decdeased) were all in school together, and probably joined the Armed Services around the same time in 1944. Pete accomplished so many worthy causes in his lifetime. You should all be so very proud of him. ...

His memory shall remain eternal. Bill,...
