Not sure what to say?

May you rest in peace Peter. You are with the angels now and I know you are looking down upon your beautiful family and watching over them. We shared a lot of laughs, smiles and wonderful times together with family and that is something I will never forget. You were one of the most wonderful and caring men I have a ever met and you will forever be loved and missed. It is with a very heavy heart and tears running down my face that I say goodbye . Love and miss ya always !

My father was the most amazing man I ever met. I miss him more and more as the days pass. He will remain in my thoughts daily with wonderful memories. I appreciate all the support my family and friends have provided throughout this difficult time. Dad, I love you always.

We send our thoughts and love to the Skinner Family. We were neighbors of Pete in Monson when our children were young. Pete was a wonderful neighbor and always had a smile to share with us. We are so grateful for Pete touching our lives.

The McDonald clan sends our condolences to Papa Pete's family. He will be missed, but remembered with love and memories of his awesomeness. His amazing journey continues from this world to the next. Love to the Skinner family and all friends who mourn Papa Pete's departure.

Lighting this candle for you Mr Pete may it always shine as bright as you did . Cheers to you on your final journey until we all meet again . Your light will always shine through your amazing kids and your beautiful wife . Will miss you .

Papa Pete, May your spirit linger in the islands of St Croix under sunny skies, dancing on cool ocean breezes, under the hot Caribbean sun, drifting to the sounds of your favorite melodies... You will be forever missed.
