Our condolences go out to Peter's children and family. We loved him, he was such a wonderful friend to us and everyone that he met. With that wonderful personality, if Peter was with you, you knew that you were going to have an enjoyable time (singing, dancing and laughing). May you rest in peace. Enjoy shooting the breeze with your friend Ed.
Rest in peace and we will miss you. Dennis & Maria

Pete would often come to my gigs in the village. I would always play "Friend of the Devil" for him. We shared a common bond in working for the less fortunate.
A gentle giant.
