Dear Dolores and family,
I would look forward to Pete comming to Jones Gulch every Labor Day weekend. We would always ride together to mass in Pescadaro. Even when he couldn't dance any more he would just be sitting, watching, beaming! It was his spirit we could feel on the floor and it was uplifting. What a gentleman and big hearted guy. I won't forget him, especially those rides to pescadaro. My prayers will be for him and all of you to be comforted in his memory.
