I knew Pete a few years before he moved to Florida. A mutual friend kept me up on news from Pete since then. This last news hurts. I feel very lucky and blessed to have gotten to know Pete and his positive effect on me will stay with me forever. Pete is dearly missed.

Pat & Family

It is with great pain I write this message of condolence. Your family was our family as we all grew up together in the little community of Meadowchase/Princeton West. As I sit in front of this computer I visulize Peter hitting a powerful serve or a return with the power of a pro. He was a handsome young man with a great personality that gave us a lot of joy and will be dearly missed.

You all must keep the faith in the coming weeks and months as we support you with our blessing and prayers.

Love

Ken & Bebe
