He was the biggest-hearted guy I've ever known, and his generosity made the twin cities seem less cold to me.

Peter was a dear man and we had great times together - he was part of our pool-playing crew, and our Turf photography club. He kindly lent his talents and took the photos at our wedding in 2006. He did a wonderful job and captured the moment quietly and thoughtfully. Our heartfelt condolences to all that loved him.
