My Darling Brother
Time has not healed the pain of losing you. I was always hoping it was a bad dream and I would wake up and you would still be here giving me some cheek as always. It is not fair Pete, life wasn't suppose to be this way. I hope you got our little messages today that we sent to you in heaven, from your favourite sisters, Pauline and Julie. Miss you heaps, your heart broken sister Pauline XXX.

I am still shocked... Just a week before I shook you hand before you boarded a plane back to Australia. When Michelle gave me the news I thought there must be a mistake. We all thought very highly of you. You were always helpful and saw the positive in every situation. I am very proud that my sister found someone as caring as you. I will forever remember your smile and cheeky sense of humour. Definitely one who can never be replaced. Thank you Peter. Clay McLean - Brother In-Law (Canada)
