Peter was the leader with my younger brother Jonathan and myself, always full of fun and adventure. He built a go cart when we were young and gave everyone rides in our neighborhood. Peter, my younger brother Jonathan and I went SCUBA diving in the Florida key's many times while on vacation. Peter, taking the wheels off of roller skates and putting them on boards, tough me how to skateboard. He introduced me to music, specifically the blues along with many 60's bands. Hi favorite being the Blues breakers. He built audio amplifiers and thought me electronics. We went on many adventures in his 356 A Porsche with one up to Montreal to buy tires for his car. I will remember him most by his generosity and his care for me. I will miss you greatly. Thanks for all the cool memories. Love, Ted
