Peter came to this country from his homeland of Malta as a young man, with little more than the clothes on his back. With his unwavering work ethic, the support of his family, and a bit of luck he truly lived the American dream, living a wonderful life as a business owner and provider for his family.
Throughout his life Peter was an avid outdoorsman and enjoyed hunting, fishing, gardening, cheese making, winemaking and a myriad of other hobbies. He could do anything he set his mind to.
Peter is survived by his wife, Luisa, his three children, Angie, Peter II, and Ruben, as well as his sisters Mary, Josephine, and Gemma, along with his nieces, nephews, and countless others on whose lives he had an impact.
As he passes into the great beyond, Peter is reunited with his parents Coronato and Angela, as well as his siblings Joseph, Frank and Rosina in Heaven.
