Much light and love Margaret and family.

I have not forgotten Peter♥. Peace to all.

To Peter's Friends and Family;
I was privileged to work with Peter and the National Park Service Transportation Program while working for the Intermountain Regional Office for many years.

It is with a heavy heart that I offer my sincere condolences on his passing.

My sincerest condolences to Peter's family and friends; it was my pleasure to work with Peter while he was the alternative transportation lead - he was always so genuinely interested in our projects at Steamtown NHS.

My sincerest Condolences. It has been a privilege working with Peter. Iris Barreto
