My favorite memory of Uncle Pete will always be his approaching me at his brother's berievement luncheon and politely asking me to take him to meet the grandson who carried dad's name (Brenton Chase Trask). He was a devoted brother and uncle and we will miss him. God speed you on your journey as you begin eternal life with all of your family.

Uncle Pete,
We will miss you so but know that you are in a better place with mom and all of your sisters and brothers. May you rest in peace. The last of the Dudas family. I will miss sending you your brownies and chocolate chip cookies and getting your garden tomatoes in return.

Pete was a great guy. He was always happy to see us and tell some bits of interesting news or share his ideas. He loved and welcomed new children as our family grew. He loved working with wood to make rocking horses for our little ones. He was a great gardener. Many have tasted his tomatoes and enjoyed the beauty of the colorful flowers in the front yard. He definitely was opinionated.....liking almost nothing other than chicken soup and chocolate chip cookies. He liked to travel., visiting us years ago. He had a few older sisters who liked to tell him what to do. He was so good allowing them to do that. And he missed them so when they weren't around. We miss you Pete (and your sisters) and love you so.
