I am deeply saddened by this loss. I knew Peter in early 2000. He was a gentle soul with a great sense of humor and helpful nature. This is so sad. My heart goes out to the Bakers and all who loved Peter.

I sadly learned just today of Peter's passing. What a kind and caring human being. Always ready to help someone out. Loved listening to the stories of his adventures. The world is a sadder place. Enjoy exploring heaven, Peter. We will miss you.

I just learned of Peter's passing. It brings a smile to my face to remember him as a young boy shooting around at the half times of our basketball games with all the other kids. I'm so sorry for your loss. My condolences to Mrs. Baker, Jimmy, Tim, Mike, and all the Bakers.

My deepest sympathy to you Mrs. Baker, Kim, Suzanne and Tim. I always enjoyed my conversations with Peter. It was a pleasure to get to know him. I'm sorry that I was away in Virginia at the time of his passing and was ill for a time when I returned so I just learned today of Peter's untimely death. He had big plans to go on another cross country adventure. I hope he's having an adventure in the next life. My thoughts are with you all.

My deepest condolences to Peters family as well as to my sister Karen Baker. I was recently in Florida this summer taking care of my Mom who passed away from cancer in August. When we learned of Peters illness, she said many prayers for him and always asked how he was doing. She was very empathetic to what he was going through as she could understand what it was like to undergo cancer treatment and she felt very badly for him. I enjoyed many interesting (and long - LOL!!) conversations with Peter. I keep him in my prayers that he is at peace and is no longer suffering.
Sincerely,
Kathi Camillucci
