My deepest and sincere condolences to Mrs. Cunningham and your entire family. Mr. Pete was a wonderful man with a big hear. Your husband was the first and only black business man I ever worked for and enjoyed every moment. I was his manager for Cunningham and Hatchett Assoc. when he owned the first Ice Cream Store "Traveler's Treat" at the newly opened Charlotte Douglas International Airport in 1983. He will truly be missed by all.
Merci Rice Lewis and Family

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
