Peter was a leader who cared for his people, and stood for what he believed in. Peter's personality was larger than life and he made every room he walked into better. He had a fabulous sense of humor and was loved by many.
Immediate family survivors include his parents: Matt Gliniecki and Patti Velman; brother, John Gliniecki, and grandfather, Theodore Velman. Peter will be missed by many loving aunts, uncles, cousins, dear friends, and his two four-legged best friends, Hoss and Otis.

My son was a goalie on one of Peter´s hockey team years ago. Peter, of course, was an amazing skater. He always always always protected Graham in the net. He was fiercely protective. I will also always remember the gift of a signed hockey stick to my son. It´s still one of his prized possessions. I feel sad and sick and so much else. Patti is always so kind to me and I´m so sad she experienced this loss. I will forever hold this family dear. And Peter´s kindnesses will always be remembered.
