I'm extremely sorry for your loss. I understand how difficult it is to lose someone and how hard it is to move on because in all honesty you can never really completely move pass and forget something like this, no matter how many days and years that pass. There are no words I can offer that will make this loss any easier, but I hope this message sheds some sort of light. No one should be forgotten. I'll keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.

So many heartfelt thanks to all who remember my son. Almost 16 years later and it still seems like yesterday. He was so loved and is so missed. Maureen

My name is Gregg Dinicola from Raceland, Louisiana. On Saturday, September 10,2016, I had the honor to wear a picture of you as I climbed 110 flights in memory of all the firefighters who lost their lives in this horrific attack on our country. I wanted to send this message to you to say "Thank You" for your bravery and being a Hero. I will always remember you as the hero I brought to the top of our Memorial Stair Climb in New Orleans.

Another Father's Day and another birthday with you gone. Put out the Puerto Rican and Irish flags for your birthday. Long day. Missing you forever. You would be so proud of David. He has turned out to be a wonderful man and misses his brother so much. Love you sweetie. XXXOOOO Mom

I miss my Father so much. And I hate that i never truly met him. Especially because i know he would have been the best Father in the world. But i know he is always with me. In my heart and in a picture hanging over my bed. Just so i know I'm safe while I sleep. Because i know he's watching and proecting me. Thank you everyone who has sent their love to me. And I just want to tell you I'm doing great. But i miss you Dad. And you will forever be in my heart.

Pete's name came to me from my fellow members of the Virginia Tech Rescue Squad. To honor the men and women of the public safety services who died in disproportionate numbers that day, we all wear silver bracelets with the name of a fallen fire, EMS or police brother or sister who made the ultimate sacrifice. I'm proud to wear Pete's name on my right arm once a year. Nice to see the notes here about what kind of person he was. He'd have fit right in on VTRS.
