Maggie, Mark, and Patrick,
Words are never adequate in moments like these. I will say though, that I wish I could be there for you in this time of need and that our hearts go out to you. I will always remember the joyous memories that I am privileged to have in spending time with Peter when he was younger. Such amazing memories I have of him! I will be praying for your strength in this time of need. I love you!

Dear Mark, Maggie & Patrick!
I am truly shocked and saddened to hear about Peter's passing. I still can visualize Peter sitting at the end of Row 2 in my first grade classroom! His big beautiful brown eyes, quick wit, and intelligence will always be with me. There are students who come and go through the years, but Peter, he is one child that left a lasting impression on me and definitely one that I have not forgotten. I knew Peter would go on to do great things in life, and I was right! Please know that I would be at the service to extend my love and sympathy to you all, however I will be out of town! Know that my heart is broken over your unimaginable loss!
With love and sympathy,
Mrs. Kathy T. Coyne
