My sympathy goes out to Peter's family at this difficult time. I have known Peter since he was in grammar school (though I have not seen or spoken to him in many years) and his parents were friends of mine through our church in Arlington. My wish is that each of you can wrap yourselves in fond and loving memories of times together with Peter and that in so doing, you will heal and feel the love he had for you.

Peter and I attended shared meetings together with Group 1 and even got a chance to play some golf togther a couple of times. His laugh and spirit was infectious.

Marji, Michael, and family,

You all are in our family's continued thoughts and prayers.

My friendship with Peter goes back quite far and is full of memories that were incredibly fun, meaningful, and full of laughs! It started in early elementary and went thru each of us getting married and starting families. From Peter being my first “business partner” when we started mowing yards in 5th grade to Peter being my First Mate on my boat, “Little Miss Magic” at South Shore Harbour -- we had such great times. I will never forget the countless hours of fun and laughs that were spent as friends, roommates, and then later with our wives and families.

I am proud and honored to have been part of Peter’s life. It saddens me beyond belief to have lost my best friend. I miss you greatly and I will cherish our memories together forever. Love you like a brother . . .

Marji:

You, Jayce, Kendyll and Gracyn are in our thoughts and prayers. Peter was a great friend to Liz and me and we will miss him very, very much. Peter was one of my greatest friends, and I am very fortunate to have had him in my life, and to have been able to share so many important times. I am eternally grateful and thankful for all the special memories I will always have of our 20 years of times together, from college buddies all the way to becoming proud fathers. Peter was one of a kind.

I am deeply saddened that Peter had to leave us so early, but I know we will meet again.

Rest in peace, my friend.

Love from Darren and Liz Senior
