Brother of Lanny, Ornes, David, Clinton, Barry, Chris, Ann Jones, Felicia Huffman and the late Adam, Richard, Nancy Butler and Mary Bourgeois. Pete is also survived by many nieces and nephews. Pete was the definition of love, demonstrating so many acts of compassion and kindness to everyone he met, which was one of many gifts. He had a great sense of humor and loved telling jokes. Pete served proudly in the United States Navy aboard the USS Midway. He was in the Air Conditioning business for over 60 years and his customers were his friends. He was a big footfall fan. He loved watching the New Orleans Saints and LSU Tigers, but most of all, he loved spending time with his family and his presence will be deeply missed by all who had the opportunity to know him.
