Not sure what to say?

Peter Primak and Joe Chambers, were two of the best teachers I ever had at The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. Peter was such a joy to be around and all of my friends at school felt the same. He was the heart and soul of the Interior Design program at the Art Institute and I was blessed to have been taught by one of the kindest human beings you could ever meet. His entire way of teaching always came from a place of sincere and genuine care and kindness.

In high school I remember him finally as a good friend like By everyone. And he was extremely talented in art. Rest in peace Pete, Your old pal Mike

He also had a great sense of humor and such an individual - it was fun being around him. Good-bye dear Pete till we follow.
