Peter Langlois Obituary

PETER LANGLOIS, a loving and devoted husband and father, and friend to all, passed away on October 3, 2007. His wife Marsha, and children, Perrin, Grant, and Paighton, will forever hold him close in their hearts. Peter was an instructor in the culinary school of the Art Institute. He enjoyed writing poetry and prose, and left for his family beautifully written tributes to each of them. "My family is the most important part of my life and each of you brings me great joy. As you go about living each day, know that I am forever with you, always. You are all my heroes." Marsha and the children wish to express their gratitude to dear friends and family for their love and support during this difficult time. A memorial service will be held on Friday, October 12, 7:00 p.m. at Pines Presbyterian Church, 12751 Kimberley, Houston, Texas 77024. A college fund has been established for Paighton and, in lieu of usual remembrances, donations may be made to the Paighton Langlois Education Fund, Account #3806110361, c/o Guaranty Bank, 14550 Memorial Drive, Houston, TX 77079, or to the charity of your choice.
