Gunner: We howled and growled in the Pound #37, and the League, but you were the "Star DD" in the group.

You will be sadly missed my friend, as the Supreme Commandant called you home. Bow Wow & Semper Fi.....

Pete (Gunner),
We had great times over the years,
social events with the Marine Corps League and the Military Order of Devil Dogs, and a lot of fun in between. You will be greatly missed.

Gene & I will miss Pete. He was one of the good guys. He always made us laugh. He would always razz Dr. Pete about the chairs in group at the Vet Center.
Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.
Very Sincerely
