We miss you! I remember the day of my prom Pete our neighbor at the time ironically walked out in Black Tie suit matching our out fit so perfectly we asked him to be in our picture. I still have that photograph.

Peter, How do you say good-bye to a friend.You were more brother, more rock, more confidant, more spiritual guide than "just a friend". From the moment that we meet in 1972 we were all that and more. You honored me by asking me to be your son's godmother. You honored me by asking me into your life and me into yours. I will always love you and keep you memory alive with me.

We just found out this morning that our dear friend passed. We were so honored that he and Faith traveled to San Francisco for our wedding just five months ago. We are very sad and send blessings.

Pete,

Everything that was said about you at your funeral service was absolutely true. So many memories, so sad that you are gone. I recall our matching Corvettes, snowplowing for 24 hours straight, parties at our house at 427 Bethlehem Pike and you being late for work at Springfield Paper every day even though we lived next door. You touched a lot of people as you went down the road of life and we all miss you tremendously. Sharing that house with you was a very special time in my life and I will never forget all the great times that we shared. My brother, Al, was extremely fortunate to have you as a partner. Rest in Peace old friend.

I first met Pete in 1979 when I went to work for HPC right after the fire had temporarily relocated his company to Ambler. I spent the next ten years in the HPC family at the Harleysville plant. I spent many hours with Pete over those years rebuilding the machine I ran while i worked there. Some of my fondest Pete memories were the fellowship we shared at the annual HPC Golf Tournament. I know Al will stedfastly carry on his and Pete's "HPC Inc's" spirit.

Although I hadn't seen Pete in quite some time I was deeply saddened to hear of his passing. I wish I would have been able to attend the service. I would like to extend my heartfelt condolences to Pete's family and all my former HPC Brethren.

God Speed My Brother!

Respectfully,

Mike Guldin

Over 35 years ago, i met with Pete and his partner Al seeking employment. I had 2 questions that i asked. The first one was, "Will this company be around for a long time?" and the second question was "What are the expectations of the company's growth?" The first question was answered by Al, and he said "we will be here for a long, long time." The second question was answered by Pete. He told me that he had a vision. The vision was "if you want to come with me, i will take you & this company up the road to success." Right then and there, i knew that i wanted to go forward with being employed by H.P.C. It is no longer a vision but i reality that both of these questions have been answered. Pete treated his employees like family. He was compassionate, and understanding. He was very approachable to anyone, no matter what shoes they were walking in. On Saturday, March 14th we'll all be gathered for the celebration of Pete's life. And now he's on his spiritual journey. May God bless Howard Peter Cadwallader.

In Loving Memory.

Steve, Pat, Alicia, Carrie & Bridget
