Grandpa, I miss you so much. I remember the day that you had passed, Deb, Cam, me, my mom, and grandma we with you. We all gathered around the bed with the priest, saying the lords prayer. Once he left, we gathered around him again, some of us heard a knock and went to open the door thinking it was a nurse. We all felt a powerful presence enter a room then he had his last breath. i still have the football that he would squeeze, and I will hold it when I am feeling down. Grandpa, you will always be my role model, and i can't wait to see you again!

Brenda, I just heard about Larry's passing and wish you and your family our condolences. I talked to him on the phone several years ago and we said we needed to get together sometime. With families and other obligations we just never made it. I was thinking today of when I was a senior in high school and we won the Buchanan county basketball tournament. Four of those players including Pete, Delvin Wilson, Bill Wenger, and Joe McGrath are no longer with us. We did have some great times together. I wish you and your extended family the best of health and happiness in the future.

Sincerely Yours
Larry Sloan

I remember Pete fondly, always smiling and joking, even if it was with few words. Brenda and Pete were the parents that I wanted to be like. They had such a lovely family of four small children. Even though we've been out of touch for decades, I've always remembered them both, as inspirations. From his photo, it shows that he never lost his smile and that spark in his eye as if he was getting ready to deliver one last zinger. God bless you all. Mary Beth, formerly from Roland.

Pete and I grew up together in Rowley. He was a gread guy to grow up with. I remember one snow storm school was cancelled, Pete came to town to see us. I knew his parents well. He came from good stock. Over the years I've had many a chuckle thinking about our youth.
RIP friend I'm sure you brightened many a day for someone.
