I have so many wonderful memories of my time spent with Pete and all of the friends we shared in common. I remember when Mike Harnett and Pete ran for Student Body President and Vice-President. They didn't win but they certainly entertained the guys at school with all of the crazy sayings they painted all over Jack Harnett's old pick-up truck. High school was rarely dull and we seemed to always take advantage of our age.

My memory of Peter has everything to do with Peter "the football player".As I remember it he was an offensive lineman. An as a running back I depended on his ability to block for me as I ran the ball. He was a good blocker and player. And remained a good friend over the years.?

Peter was a gentle soul with a strong heart, and his example will stay with me forever. I am so grateful for everything he and Linda shared with me.

With heartfelt sympathy,

As a Class of '62 graduate, I had at best vague memories of Peter as a younger underclassman during my student years at Peralta Park. But as an adult alumnus and '62 Class President spearheading class reunions every five years, I got to know and appreciate him very well indeed once he returned to campus as Advancement Director and Alumni Guru. When we began early prep work for our Golden Diploma celebration (2012), the subject of a class gift to the school arose. It was Peter who planted the seed with his suggestion of an endowed scholarship fund in the name of the class, apparently the first ever in alumni history, an example soon followed by the succeeding Class of '63, who honored Gene Pisenti. Our fund has grown steadily, providing tuition assistance to needy students for the past dozen years or so. It's an accomplishment in which we take considerable pride, but one for whose origin we are indebted to Peter's agency, inspired by his loyalty and generosity to our alma mater.

Working with Peter automatically installed you as yet another one of his friends, moved by his modesty, sincerity, and generosity. My condolences to his family, and to the entire Saint Mary's family which he served so well.

I was fortunate to live near Peter in Saint Theresa's Parish. He was a kind and generous person who always had I smile on his face. He was definitely a role model for me.

I knew Peter from our freshman year at St. Mary's where he sat in the row behind mine. He was an enjoyable classmate. My condolences to his family and prayers that God rest him.
