Sorry to say that I never met Peter. From his daughter whom is very close to my son, I understand he was a very giving person. My son took the death very hard also. May the Lord watch over the rest of the family, Peter is looking down at us and wants us to lead useful and productive lives. This is a difficult time for the ones left behind. Peter has returned home to be with the Lord.

Leslie and Val,
You father was one of the nicest people that Elwood and I have met. He was always concerned about everyone, and had the time to sit and talk to you.
We will miss him coming by our home to say hello and his smile and little funny sayings.
Our prayer are with you at this time of need.
