It was my pleasure to get to know Pete through his participation in the Parkinsons Support Group I chaired for several years. He was a steady rock for the other members of the group; sharing many stories about his life and hobbies. I cherish the rosewood pens he made for me and for my Mother. My condolences to the entire family. Bette Cochefski

Dee,
It's so sad to learn of the loss of your dear husband, Pete. During our wonderful years at Levy's, you always spoke of him with such fondness--it was obvious he was your best friend. You and your family will be in my thoughts.

I will always consider Pete a good friend. I saw him at the bank a year ago, and he always had a smile and time to talk. Rest in peace, Pete.
My condolences to the family.
