Not sure what to say?

Pete,
Our deepest sympathy to you and your family on the passing of your father. May he rest in peace.

All our love,

I remember the trips that we made to Fairfax to visit with Uncle Pete and Aunt Jean and family. Baba, Gigi, mom dad and whatever kids fit in the car. It was like a camping trip. Condolences to all the family I am sorry that I can not be there. Love Judy

Dear Opar Family! We are so sorry for your loss! Pete was a great man with a fantastic sense of humor and a warm and gentle smile. We loved the times we shared together with your family. His greatest legacy rests in all of you and we are grateful for his presence in our lives. Our prayers are with you, as you mourn his loss and treasure his memories! Love to all of you!

I also shared time with Pete and Jean in our Senior Champion Program. Pete's love of and devotion to his family shown through in all he did.He proudly shared photos of all of his children and grand children.

He loved golf and of course baseball where his grandson is a pitcher.

Pete will be missed and I will always treasure my memories of him.

As a volunteer in the Senior Champions Program, I was able to work with Pete and his wife, Jean. He was a very loving, gentle man who was a friend to all. I will miss his kindness and his sense of humor.
He was also the best sportsman in the group.

Please know that you all are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Pete was a neighbor of mine groing up on Rolling Meadow

I met Pete through the St Louise Men's Golf League. He was in the foursome I played with my first round in the league 12 years ago. He was an amazing golfer for a player of his age. Every shot was right down the middle - not the longest but never in trouble. He was a true gentleman and an inspiration to all of us who knew him. When he moved away a couple of years ago it left a noticeable hole in the league - both on the course and at the dinners afterwards.

We will miss him and...

Mr. Opar was our neighbor. He always had a kind smile and an interesting story or two to tell about his former line of work and this neighborhood, before our time here. Our thoughts are with his lovely wife, Jean, and with his loving family. Pete was a true gentleman; he will be fondly remembered by all his friends in Rolling Meadows.
