Pete Potorti's calm and peaceful persona gave strength, support and encouragement to all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
I am forever grateful for the support and encouragement he -and Olga!!- shared with myself, my sister, and our parents during the years of their terminal illnesses in 1992 and '93.
Rest in Peace, Mr. Potorti. May the angels take you into paradise.

A great man with a great smile! He and his beautiful wife would always wave and say "Hi" when I would see them at church when I visited Ithaca.
Ithaca has lost a real 'Winner"
R.I.P. Pete!
