Peter was my attorney when I started my company 32 years ago (1990). I´m approaching my retirement and wanted to thank him again for his years of friendship, support, advice and counsel. I´m very sorry to learn of his passing. He was a wonderful guy. His encouragement as I encountered my first contractual dispute with a much larger company was a huge part of my success. I´ll never forget him. My condolences to his family. Thank-you, Pete. All my love to you and yours.

Carol, I couldn't find your email. I've been thinking of you and now better understand your grief. My husband died in October. It's been the worst agony of my life. I hope you have found peace and joy again

I attended law school with Pete. He was the first classmate I made friends with in September, 1971 at DePaul. We remained friends throughout Law School and played intramural basketball together while students at DePaul. I last saw Pete at my wedding on September 28, 1974 in Roseland and the reception following in South Holland. In going thru old papers just yesterday I found a letter he sent me in the fall of '74 after the wedding, in which he said I was his best friend in school. So I decided to find him and discovered that he had passed away. I am so sorry to learn of his passing. I am disappointed that I had not tried to reconnect sooner. To me Pete will always be 25 years of age, with long dark hair and be able to dunk the basketball. He was a good friend and an important part of my life. He is missed.
