It's been a month, and I still can't believe Pete's gone. Pete was someone I just wasn't willing to lose, and it hurts all the time. My heart goes out to Marie, Judy, and all the family, for the loss you are suffering. We went through several hospital stays with Pete, and his dog Rascal even brought life to Pete, when he was in a coma after surgery. I brought Rascal to the hospital, and lifted him close to Pete's face, and Pete opened his eyes, and said: "Rascal!" It was a miracle. Pete was very special and unique. He is missed so much!

Pete was a very special person. I know he is nearby in spirit, but now he is at peace and has no pain. Pete is a man not to be forgotten. I will miss Pete for a very long time. Laurel Manzola

Pierre gave me my first motorcycle ride and we took a tumble because I was so stiff and scared and didn't tilt my body with the cycle. I also remember Pierre scaring me about snakes in the backyard and that I climbed on top of the picnic table. I will remember Pierre as a loving free spirit. Love Cousin Corinne
