I was very sad to read about Peter. He will be missed so by me and so many others because he was such an all round personable guy. He was wonderful to know.

I was fortunate enough to meet Peter & Susan through mutual friends. Although I was only around Peter a handful of times, I spent one of the most memorable evenings with them. While making frozen drinks, Peter looked for ice cream in the freezer. When he found out there wasn't any, he dryly exclaimed with a puzzled look "That's *expletive* Un-American! Moral to that story - Live your Best Life and always keep ice cream in your freezer! Rest in peace Peter. I hope you and Debbie are enjoying frozen drinks. Sending my sincere sympathy to Susan and all of Peter's family and friends. I was blessed to have crossed his path.
