Marie, Peter and Debbie,
I have such wonderful memories of your Dad, my Uncle Pete.
We always enjoyed visiting Uncle Pete on our trips back to Vermont. It never failed that he had a funny story to tell about he and my Grandfather, and some crazy thing they did when they were kids. He always made us laugh.
Uncle Pete was a loving father and so very proud of his family. Your Dad was so helpful to my Grandmother after my Grandfather passed away, and we were so appreciative to him for that.
He lived a long wonderful life, and we are thankful for our time with him.
Love,
Joey

Pete & Marie,
So sorry to hear of Uncle Pete's passing, I ran into him a couple years ago while at the Loretta Home and he was so sweet and friendly to me, just as I recall growing up when my dad used to bring me to visit. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Pete, Debbie, Marie and family,
I'm so sorry to hear of Uncle Pete's passing but I know it has been a difficult time since he went into the nursing home 5 years ago.
Although he is no longer with us the memories he left behind are cherished and cannot be taken away.
I will always remember the pick nicks at the lake, hunting and fishing with my Dad, Uncle Pete and Uncle Joe. I will always remember seeing him making his home made beer in our Grandfather Angelo's basement and in later years at home. I will always remember when Pat and I would stop to see him on our visit from Manchester. He always wanted us to have a glass of wine, pick some berries from his garden to take home or try one of his favorite dishes he was preparing for dinner before we left for home.
These are my memories I will always have of my Uncle Pete that can never be taken away. May God Bless him and his family. Love Gene and Pat Manfredi
