Peter was a very good friend of mine whom I met late in his life. He had some great stories about living for several years in New Orleans following a plane layover from Mexico City back in the 1950s when plane schedules were far less contiguous as today. He checked into a hotel in the French Quarter and sampled the cuisine and the jazz on Bourbon Street. When the day came to pick up the home bound flight, he decided to stay for a month and that grew into several months and then years. He was a sophisticated vagabond and a delightful person. A secret he told me was that his start in college and acting was made possible by the Woodward family of Jello fame in Leroy, who sponsored his trip to New York City and enrollment in the American Academy. Perhaps because it reminded him of his days in New Orleans, he was a faithful fan of my band, the Smugtown Stompers, coming to our performances whenever they were reasonably close to Scottsville. We were fortunate to help celebrate his 80th birthday at Sally's house and he shared my love for local history. I will miss him.
