Very sorry to hear about Pete's passage. I went to college with him and we roomed together as well. He was a great guy, lots of heart, and an infectious smile. Thoughts and prayers to his family!

To Pete's Family,
I had many a good time with Pete. Whether it was playing tennis, shooting darts, fishing or just hanging out at the Village Pub. The guys and I spent so much time at the Pub, we nicknamed it "the office".
Rest in Peace Pete, we will miss you.
God bless your family,
Drew McSkimming
