Pete was part of our yoga "family" at the downtown Oshkosh YMCA. We all miss him and enjoyed his friendship for many years. He was so looking forward to retirement and spending time with his hobbies, we're sad his happy retirement was cut so short. Often he would join the group going for coffee after class. Blessings to his family and friends.

I just found out today, that I lost a friend ... I am the Marina Manager at the Pioneer and have known Pete for 15 years thru the Marina... We shared many conversations over the years. I respected his opinions , enjoyed his stories , he knew how to make me laugh and I will miss him dearly.He missed no chance to lovingly brag about his family and their times together. He had a good word for everyone and went out of his way to show his good heart and be a friend . Pete was always around to help and never asked for anything in return. Rest in peace my friend ...
