“Mary Jane and family, we are so sadden to hear of Pete’s passing, however we know he is in a much better place. When I look back and cherish those great years we knew Pete we were so fortunate to know him. He was my buddy and always made my day rather good or bad. The talks we had, the cruise we took, or just sitting on the patio at RFV was worth knowing him. The tears will dry but the memories will last a lifetime 🥰🥰🥰🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻”
