Peter Lento Obituary
On April 9th, 2025, Peter J. Lento of Goffstown, NH, passed away at the age of 61 with his loving wife at his side.
Peter entered the kingdom of heaven to be reunited with his parents, John and Ines Lento, his grandparents, and all his predeceased loved ones. He will be lovingly remembered by his wife Darlene, daughter Danielle, son Anthony and daughter-in-law Emily, his brother Nick, his sister-in-law and brother-in-law Debbie and John, and numerous other family members and friends.
Peter grew up in Everett, Massachusetts. He met the love of his life in 1984 and they raised two beautiful children together. Peter will be fondly remembered for his love and dedication to his family, sense of humor, contagious laugh, and his generosity. He loved visiting the NH mountains and being outdoors, especially gathering around a fire with loved ones. He cherished his Italian-American heritage and keeping his family's recipes alive. His meatballs will be greatly missed.
A fan of hockey, classic rock, fried clam strips and Richie's slush, Peter knew how to enjoy the simple joys of life and inspired those around him to do the same. Peter, we love you and will always miss your presence. You have taught us to never give up and to live life to the fullest.
A private family service will be held at a later date.
