I met Pete through my cousin Glenn around 2009. In mid 2009 I was having major issues with a Chevy pickup I had purchased. I had maybe $150 to my name at the time. I took my truck to a local mechanic and to do what I needed done, they were going to charge me over a grand. My cousin told Pete, what had happened, and Pete came to my apartment in Binghamton at the time, and offered his services. Pete did the work, that took 4 hrs. And charged me $50
I send my deepest condolences to Pete's wife and family.
The lord is close to those broken in spirit.
