I was fortunate to work with Peter for several years at the Assessor's Office in the early 90s. Such a smart and kind person!

I worked with Peter for a number of years at the La Plata County Assessors office. We lived nearby when he was on CR 250. Peter was always great, it was a pleasure to see him at various assessment functions and schools. He made a difference in the world. I am so sorry for your loss.

Cuz,
Wow, how much fun have we had through the years??!!! Louisville, grandparents, Durango and the crazy parties, weddings, funerals, family gatherings, Kentucky Derby´s, Fowler Hilliard Hut, Denver, Mesa, Oregon, California and so much more.
You have always had my back and been an older brother to me. We have laughed together, been goofy together and cried together. Your support and love for me has been tangible and undeniable. I will never forget you giving me one of Gings rings which in turn I passed on to family.
You gave of yourself freely to friends and family and were always positive, kind and loving.
I just can´t believe you have entered another universe. We are all so sad, but you have left us with a lifetime of memories. I am so grateful for all the time and love we shared.
How would I describe your life? A southern gentleman who would give you the shirt off his back and provide you with endless comfort, joy and love. I will miss you so much, Peter. Fly free cousin. Say hi to the others. Until we meet again, I love you!!

I worked with Peter at the Assessor's office for many years. I consider him my mentor. His love of all things Snowdown will be missed. We had a lunch date for today......
Peter was a wonderful father raising Carrie and John as their primary parent. How wonderful they are is a testament to the great job he did as their father.
Peter was famous for his green chili, that was a bit different every time he made it! When we traveled for work we had to find the best local Mexican Restaurant, he loved it spicy!
The work he did for the Assessors office we still use on a daily basis, and we talk about him like he just retired yesterday. I loved you my dear friend and will remember you always! I have your Snowdown shirt and hat waiting for you!

You´re a good man, Peter. I´ll never forget our shopping expedition to Juarez so many years (decades!) ago; an impromptu poker game in Vail; climbing the escarpment behind your place in McElmo ... pretty rich, right? Pretty rich!
