There are so many words to describe Peter. A worshipping husband to “his”bride” , A loving father, and best friend to his son, A proud Gramps, A long-standing Lodge member. A man of service. A generous friend. The sparkle in his eye, a smile that would light up a room. A laugh that would make you laugh. Street meat Sunday’s. There are so few words to express the profound loss of this great man. We are so very sorry for you loss.

Dear Vicki, Barry, Liza & Family, Some people don''t realize they''re special at all - how thoughtful they are without thinking about it - always right there when you call - with a smile on his face, always ready to share, not expecting a thing in return, yet always seemed richer for giving. Peter was one of those very special people, with a heart of gold. He was the eternal optimist & a blessing to all that knew him. May his memory be forever a blessing & may the beautiful memories you''ve shared together, sustain you all in the days ahead. With all our love, sympathy & prayers, Lynn, David & Family
