The commuinty lost a quiet giant. You often said your greatest professional achievement was underwriting the initial mortgage application "Kids Escaping Drugs ".The hundreds you greeted, welcomed with that firm handshake made such a difference. Those of us that follow must continue to be there so we can keep the door open for the new pwrson

Sure sorry to learn of Pete's death. As a long time resident of Buffalo and member of the UU Church and a friend of Mr Bill and Dr Bob, Pete sure was important to me. When I left Buffalo to move to S. Carolina in '05 Pete gave me great advise for my admission to the AA group down here. I remember him well.

I wish I had the words to express the value you added to our world. Your greatest professional joy the underwriting you did to get the mortgage approved for Kids Escaping Drugs. Personally your years of sharing at UMDG and the men that benefitted can nor be measured. You will be missed here but now you are the new guy. God speed dear friend.
