Pete and I were roommates in Aviation Officer Candidate School, VT-1 AND VT-3(1970-71). We spent a lot of time together in Pensacola usually waterskiing. Loved doing things with Pete and yes he loved his tricks.

I just found out today that Pete had passed away. My deepest sympathies to the family. I got to fly with Pete a few times and he was a pleasure to be around and work with. I am one of the Admins of the Southern Air Ways Facebook site and email list and will make sure his obituary is sent out for all to see. My best wishes, Rick Toucey
