"Pete" was a friend in childhood when we attended the same church on Broadway during our most tender years. We lost touch later on -- attending different schools, I guess -- but I knew he was around and about and later on learned about his devotion to Zeus. I thought him a decent man and trust I was right. We'll wake greetings on the other side where he is now settling in and where, before too long, I suspect I will become a roomer too. God Bless Pete!

My condolences to Walt, Mel, Brenda, and Sally. For years I use to see Pete at the gate to the hunting camp early in the morning. He always gave me a big wave as I passed by laying on my car horn. I will miss him but will never forget him as I pass by the gate each morning.
He was a dedicated FORD man for years driving only Fords purchased from Kingsley's Ford on Broadway. We all looked forward to visiting with him when having his Ford serviced..
