Peter Dennison Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Nov. 17, 2021.
Passed away unexpectedly in his 66th year with family by his side on November 7, 2021, in Barrie. Predeceased by his loving parents Donald (1990) and Velma (2020). Cherished partner of Carole Amaral. Precious brother of Tracey Stevens (Greg) and Bob. Father of Brian (Vicki) and David (Rabie), and grandfather of Emma, Johnathan and Maya. He will be sadly missed by Andrew Smith (Stacey). Peter was a skilled builder and left his mark on many projects locally, as well as the GTA, Barrie, and more recently Kashechewan, Northern Ontario. He was an avid fisherman from a very young age and an exceptional cook who loved to entertain. Pete will be remembered for his laid-back personality, zest for life, and contagious laugh. He was very important to our family. We counted on his calm, supportive guidance and will miss him more than words can say. A private Celebration of Peter's Life will be held on November 20, 2021.

Hi brother. Rest in peace

Peter was always a caring person supporting many others. We lived on the same street, for many years, as Tracey, her family, and my family including my three brothers Greg (Tracey's spouse), Mark and Drew.

When I was in elementary school, Peter would frequently drop by our home to encourage me, and my brothers to join him, and many other children in the neighborhood, to skate on the rink on the street. I always struggled to tie my figure skates and Peter would always offer to help me. If I arrived on the rink after my brothers, Peter would check on me to ensure my skates were tied securely.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Tracey and my brother Greg during this time of sorrow.
