Dear Pauline and family:

My deepest sympathy to all of you.

We will all miss Pete dearly. I have only worked for him for a little over a year and it was my pleasure . Everyday was a joy coming to work, I looked forward to our talks and laughs. He loved his

family and let us all share in his stories. I will miss him. I'm grateful I got to meet Pete and be part of his life.

Dear Pete-

Thank you for always making me laugh. When I had a bad day you cheered me up. It was a pleasure working for you. You were the reason I loved to go to work. Seeing your smiling face lighted up the rest of my day. I remember you always saying "you mexicana" and "she's looking at me!" You know what I'm talking about Pete. I know you're up there living the great life, no pain, no heart ache and feeling good again. Well I know you're doing great now. Thank you for giving me such great memories. You were a special person. And I Will never ever forget you. (I'm getting all choked up!) And good thing you're not right in front of me because you would be making me laugh so hard I WOULD PROBABLY PEE MY PANTS.

Anyways, see you when I get to the pearly gates.

Love You Always-Your Mexicana Jennifer

Dear Pauline and Family;



It will be the little things

that you will remember

the quiet moments,

the smiles, the laughter.

And although it may

seem hard right now,

it will be the memory

of these little things

that help to push away the pain

and bring the smiles back again.



I will always remember My Godfather Pete's laughing eyes and the brightest of smiles......

Love,

Janet (Pupa)(Sokolowski)Turnelius
