One of my sweetest memories of my brother Peter, was he and Adeline dancing the 'father/daughter dance, at my daughter's wedding at Disney World. His 'love of life' truly began the day he married Michele and grew each day he shared with Peter Jr. and Adeline. His love transcends all space and time. His big hugs, hearty laugh and endless kindnesses will forever hold special memories in my heart. I love you and will miss you forever, dear brother.

Michelle, Peter, and Adeline,

May God bless you and be with you in this difficult time.

I had not spoken to Pete or Michelle in more than 10 years, but I still regard him as one of the best friends a person could ever have.

While I don't live in the Chicago area anymore, I still think of my friends from there and Pete is always at the top of the list.
