Dear Mitchell Family, Peter was my late brother, Barry's 'fun' friend. He always had a smile on his face and was always on some kind of adventure. I hope your memories of him will be a solace to you now.

He has three brother- in- law to welcome him !!... May he rest in Peace and May God give you the peace you need.

You are probably one of the most caring and free spirited men I have ever met. A wonderful poet, and artist. I miss you and I love you dearly Grandpa P'ta.

We love you, Peter
